You have probably never seen him but you will have seen his work. As one of the world’s most respected and experienced adventure filmmakers and cameramen, Keith Partridge has spent the past 30 years camera-in-hand, capturing the essence of adventure, in some of the most remote and spectacular places on earth. His work, across over 80 projects, has taken him to all 7 continents, to the summit of Everest, unexplored mountains in Arctic Greenland and to the ‘lost worlds’ of Venezuela together with cave explorations in Papua New Guinea and Vietnam plus expeditions to just about everywhere in between.


Keith Partridge, will provide an insight into his ‘Life Behind the Lens’ through a spectacular illustrated presentation with pictures, video-clips and stories from his wild filming adventures around the world. The evening promises to be quite the ride!


His work has pushed him to explore the limits; physically, mentally and technically. Overcoming challenge and adversity through up-close and personal story-telling, has been his hallmark. He has navigated the razor’s edge of risk where Keith’s positive mindset has enabled him to do things he may have otherwise thought beyond him.


Keith’s work has received global recognition with an ‘International EMMY for cinematography’ for his work on the BBC’s flagship series ‘The Human Planet’, the Guild of Television Camera Professional’s ‘Award for Excellence’ for the filming of exploratory expedition into the wilds of Venezuela and the International Explorers Festival ‘Camera Extreme Award’ for his work on the BAFTA Outstanding British Film ‘Touching the Void’. In 2023 he received the ‘Royal Television Society’s Camera Craft Award’. Other productions in which he’s been involved have won dozens of international film awards. In 2019 he was awarded the ‘Grand Prize’ for his contribution to mountain filmmaking from the International Alliance of Mountain Film (representing all the major mountain and adventure film festivals around the world).


From the adventurer, to anyone with an interest in the outdoors, photography, filmmaking or even hair-raising stories this will be an evening not to be missed.
