From the Ocean Floor to the Big Screen! 🎞 💥 In early 2022, the Endurance22 expedition team, onboard the South African icebreaker S.A. Agulhas II, carrying cutting-edge undersea search technology, set out to find Shackleton’s Endurance at the bottom of the Weddell Sea. Organised and funded by the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust, Expedition Leader Dr. John Shears, Expedition Sub-Sea Manager Nico Vincent and Director of Exploration Mensun Bound lead a team of experts from around the globe on the search for this “perfect time capsule." Dan Snow - historian and Founder and Creative Director of History Hit - joined the team on board, updating audiences across the world on the expedition in real-time via social media. The Trust chose Little Dot Studios, with History Hit and Consequential, to film this journey of discovery. The team joined forces with National Geographic and Little Monster Films, who share the passion for the extraordinary tale of Shackleton and his men, to bring a feature-length documentary to fruition, inspiring new audiences with the story of two epic adventures a century apart. In this tale of grit and determination, #EnduranceFilm tells the astounding story of polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton’s perseverance in the frozen pack ice as modern-day explorers search for his sunken ship. From National Geographic Documentary Films and directed by Chai Vasarhelyi, Jimmy Chin and Natalie Hewit, catch the world premiere at British Film Institute (BFI)'s London Film Festival this October. #LFF

Meet the team 👋 Here at History Hit, we have so many talented team members across the company. But how does every person's day-to-day vary within their different roles, and what valuable lessons have they acquired about the industry along the way? In our regular Meet the Team series, we ask individuals from each department to offer a glimpse behind the scenes of our award-winning content. It is likely no overstatement to say that if Beth Donaldson did not turn up to work, the Audio Team might be in danger of falling into chaos. Each week History Hit releases sixteen podcast episodes, and behind all those episodes are schedules, budgets, workflows, legal documents, and more. Coordinating this is not all Beth does - you might find her aboard HMS Victory recording with the Dan Snow's History Hit team, or assisting on a video shoot in a studio. From in front of the spreadsheet to behind the recorder, Beth offers her advice for anyone looking to get into media, gives insight into the challenges of her role, and shares a pretty fishy fact... 🐟 #meettheteam #productioncoordinator #podcast #network #team #history

As part of the relaunch season of Dan Snow's History Hit podcast, the team are bringing listeners a truly remarkable episode exemplifying everything the show stands for - empathetic storytelling, intellectually engaging history, and making the past accessible to all 💥 In this special episode, Dan delves into one of the most harrowing survival stories of the 20th century. High in the remote Andes, a Uruguayan rugby team faced the unthinkable after their plane crashed into a mountain. Dan Snow sits down with survivor Roy Harley, Daniel Nogueira - who lost his brother in the ordeal - and author John Guiver to explore the incredible true story behind Netflix’s hit film, Society of the Snow. This episode not only revisits their unimaginable ordeal but also navigates the complex moral dilemmas they faced in their fight for survival. Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore, this episode is a powerful reminder of why history matters. Please give it a listen 🎧 https://lnkd.in/egUTk8GW #podcast #relaunch #dansnowshistoryhit #network #societyofthesnow #interview #network
