Lagus was the first cameraman engaged by the BBC to shoot natural history footage,[1] and worked with David Attenborough on his early Zoo Quest series in 1954. Life and careerLagus' career as a film-maker began in 1946 when he switched from studying medicine to photography, and began making medical and scientific research films for Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI).[1] In 1954, aged 26,[2] he did his first work for the BBC, on David Attenborough's Zoo Quest in Sierra Leone,[1] the series which would launch his career.[2] Lagus eventually worked on most episodes of the series, and also worked in Australia on Peter Scott's Faraway Look in 1957.[1] In 1959 he directed the documentary Kariba, following attempts to rescue animals during the construction and flooding of the Kariba Dam. Lagus also wrote a book about the topic entitled Operation Noah.[1] Other nature programmes that Lagus worked on included Anglia Television's Lure of the Dolphin in 1976, the BBC's Animal Magic and ITV's Nature Watch. He also worked on other shows including Z-Cars (1964) and Jane Eyre (1963).[1] Between 1982 and 1989 he was a lecturer at the National Film and Television School, and in 1984 he was elected as a member of the British Society of Cinematographers (BSC).[1] In 1986 Lagus received the "Lifetime Achievement Panda" for services to wildlife film-making at the Wildscreen Film Festival in Bristol, United Kingdom.[1] He now lives in Mauritius.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {{cite web|title=Charles Lagus BSC|website=Wild Film History|url=http://www.wildfilmhistory.org/person/222/Charles+Lagus+BSC..html|accessdate=8 April 2017}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Lagus, Charles}}{{CzechRepublic-bio-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news|title="We were rebels" - Sir David Attenborough and cameraman Charles Lagus tell how they defied the odds to bring pioneering BBC series Zoo Quest to the screen|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/david-attenborough-zoo-quest-in-colour|accessdate=8 April 2017|work=BBC Media Centre|date=16 May 2016}} 5 : Living people|Czech photographers|Czech filmmakers|Year of birth uncertain|Year of birth missing (living people) |
