Volcano Stock
Footage
Living Letters Productions has documented the entire
eruption of the Soufriere Hills volcano in Montserrat. If you represent
a
production company, we can send you time-coded copies of the best of
over 300
hours of archive footage.
Tape
1 covers the images from the start of the eruption in 1995, including
the first
steam vents, phreatic eruptions, evacuations and the beginnings of dome
building.
Tape
2 covers 1997 to 2005, with all the massive eruptions, pyroclastic
flows,
narrow escapes, mudflows, (lahars), the buried capital city of Plymouth
and the
rebuilding of the north of the island.
Our
images have been used in over fifty programs broadcast around the world
on the
Discovery Channel, TLC, Nova, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, National Geographic
Channel,
the Travel Channel, BBC, Channel Four and stations in Japan, France,
Germany
and other countries around the world. Some of the, “danger zone”,
segments have
aired on Maximum Exposure, Real Video and Worlds Most Amazing Videos.
Our
own productions are the nine-volume Price of Paradise video series that
has now
been compiled into the DVD “Memories of Montserrat” and the educational
DVDs
titled, “Montserrat’s Andesite Volcano” and the children’s DVD,
“Volcano
Island”.
