Human Natures Films

 

Be part of the Human Natures Exhibition

HUMAN NATURES is a major new exhibition about people and how we live with nature. Opening later this year at Derby Museum before touring to Manchester Museum, Great North Museum: Hancock, Norfolk Museums and the Horniman Museum in London, it’s your chance to be part of the show.

We’re creating a film about “holes and heaps” the marks humans leave on the land, water, and air. From towering piles of rubbish to deep excavations, every heap and hole tells a story about who we are.

Your challenge:

  • Film short clips (up to 30 seconds) of the holes and heaps in your local environment.

  • Optional: Add a short voice note describing what you’ve found.

  • No animation or AI — just real, thoughtful glimpses of our human impact.


Tips:

  • You can use a phone, camera, drone, or any device.

  • Include yourself without showing your face (hands, feet, voice, etc.).

  • Focus on land, air, or water — slow, steady shots work best.


Selected clips will be part of the exhibition film. Details on how we’ll use your clips are in the link below.

Deadline: Sunday 24 August

Help us tell the story of how humans are reshaping the planet — one hole, one heap at a time.
