A passionate Documentary photographer specialising in Cape Wild Fires has just released a trailer to his new documentary.
And the epic footage shows just how incredibly heroic our firefighters are!
Justin Sullivan has been exploring photography in the greater Cape Town region for the past 2 years, broadening his expertise in Documentary Photography – specialising in Cape Wild Fires.
After completing his secondary schooling at the all-boys-boarding school Michaelhouse, Justin studied Development & Environmental Studies at the University of Stellenbosch. Justin completed majors in Geography & Environmental Studies, Public & Development Management, and a half-major in Sociology.
Sullivan now focusses his work on highlighting contemporary issues within South Africa, using photography to display insights into an unknown world. His documentary work from numerous Wild Fires around Cape Town has been highly recognised both locally and internationally, with various publications for print and online media.
Sullivan is currently working on a Documentary based on the unique wild fires of the Western Cape, South Africa.
“Walking With Fire” is aimed at creating awareness, environmental education and bringing to life the stories of those who battle these rampant wild fires, this all inclusive documentary will highlight every aspect of modern day fire suppression, prevention, rehabilitation and both the history & science of wild fires in the Cape Floral Kingdom.
The frequency and intensity of wildfires in the Cape region has increased drastically over the last decade due to irregular climate patterns, population growth on the urban-wildland interface and an increase in human negligence and premeditated ignitions.
This documentary will not only serve to address all the issues above, but promote a constructive working synergy within the firefighting community and the public, embracing the term ‘Fire is Everyone’s fight’.
