A film for Environmental Bamboo Foundation, the first of many. We traveled to the mountainous part of Flores to film the efforts to build bamboo villages, using bamboo as the main driver for restoring degraded lands.
Working as a DP on this project has been one of the most enjoyable shoots. Shot within the highland areas around Bajawa, the nice temperature and breathtaking landscape was memorable.
From Excess to Energy: Carbon Copy with Indonesian Farmers
With over 25 million rural households relying on traditional biomass fuels, Indonesia needs to increase clean renewable energy uptake. Biogas digesters emerged as the most suitable renewable energy source to replace firewood stoves, but they are not being deployed fast enough. As a solution, su-re.co developed cheap and user-friendly biogas digesters. Witness su-re.co’s journey in developing the most scalable solution for the country through this video. This project is supported by IKI Small Grants and the Climate Collective.
su-re.co is an environmental think-do-be tank based in Canggu, Bali – Indonesia.

MATRA PANTURA: Dialog Perubahan Iklim di Batas Pesisir
by EIGER Films EIGER ADVENTURE
Berkolaborasi dengan Yayasan Wanadri untuk melakukan penanaman bibit mangrove di Desa Mayangan, Subang. Kami belajar lagi lanekap tropis dengan melihat bencana iklim di kawasan mangrove. Bahwa abrasi di Pantai Utara terjadi bukan saja karena berkurangnya kawasan mangrove. Kami berkenalanan dengan tokoh lokal Abah Ncay yang melopori konservasi mangrove disana sekaligus bertemu dengan kelompok pemuda penerusnya. Siaga Pantai Utara (SIPUT) merupakan kelompok pemuda lokal yang melakukan patroli di kawasan mangrove di Desa Mayangan. Film Matra Pantura berusaha menangkap cerita para inspirator lokal ini. Dan harapannya bisa memicu dialog dan kolaborasi lanjutan merespon bencana iklim di Pantai Utara.
