On May 10th, Lambda Films packed up their camera gear and jetted off to the Caribbean Island of St Vincent. The objective? To scale and film La Soufrière, an active Volcano nestled within an Island community.
The purpose of this epic adventure, which was commissioned by the University of East Anglia, was to produce informational video content about the Volcano, island life and how it is disrupted by the effects of an eruption.
The videos themselves are destined to be premiered at the London Volcano event, a collaboration between UEA, Oxford University, The Seismic Research Centre at the University of the West Indies and The Natural History Museum London.
The event, which is part of national Universities week, will include a 3-metre replica of La Soufrière which will demonstrate the effects of volcanic activity. The accompanying video content will help educate audiences and bring to life the pressures and dangers of living on St Vincent in the shadow of an active volcano.
Following the event, the video content will be used as part of the STREVA project, an initiative to help strengthen resilience in volcanic areas, specifically in Latin America and the Caribbean. They will return and be broadcast around St Vincent to help educate the community on our findings.
