"In a relatively short amount of time, The Wild Talk Film Festival has managed to become one of the most engaging events in the South African film industry.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and will ensure that I am back in 2013." Dean Leslie, Director, The African Attachment

"Thanks for a fantastic Wild Talk Africa 2011!  We enjoyed quality meetings with influential decision-makers, and genuine, practical value-add from the panel discussions and workshops.  The screenings were inspirational!  Cape Town is an excellent venue and is a destination that makes all the difference for an international event like this!" Gordon Greaves, Producer, TVPC Film & Media

"Wild Talk is not only a valuable platform for local producers to pitch their projects, but a very necessary and integral part of keeping up to date with international production trends. I am one of many producers who feel that Wild Talk should become a permanent event in our film calendar.  Perhaps we could expand the profile of the commissioning editors by inviting travel and lifestyle broadcasters to the show as Africa lends itself perfectly to this genre too." Darren Putter, Producer, Dumela Africa New Media

"Wild Talk Africa is an essential platform for filmmakers like us!  It is a valuable and rare opportunity for producers of wildlife content, who cannot afford to attend the overseas symposiums like Jackson Hole and MIP.  It is through initiatives like this that South African filmmakers are able to showcase their talent, as well as network together to bring even better local programming into the international arena." Patrick Bonior, Wild Revolution/Lapalala Wilderness Reserve

"As a first timer to Wild Talk, I was unsure of what to expect and what I could gain. However, I was blown away by how accessible and approachable everyone from NHU was for the duration of the festival, it seemed to run seamlessly.  The range of content seemed to cover every angle and as far as I could make out a lot of thought had gone into the program to make sure overlap between panels and workshops didn't clash.  It was a fantastic introduction into the industry, very informative and above all a lot of fun!!" Will Lawson, Head Game Ranger

"Without question, Wild Talk Africa provides a valuable opportunity to connect with one's peers in the Natural History environment". Paul John Myburgh, Producer/Director/DOP, Paul Myburgh Film
