The Aspinall Foundation - Joshi

  • Jose Luis Ugarte

The Aspinall Foundation works to save endangered animals and return them to the wild. For this commission I worked closely with Damian Aspinall, chairman of the foundation, to tell the story of a silverback gorilla named Joshi and his journey back to his ancestral home in the wild, in the Republic of Congo. The video showcases the logistical implications as well as the steps to follow Joshi’s arrival at the reserve.​​​​​​​ The story was picked up by The Times​​​​​​​ and ITV, as well as several other publications.
