IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Dr George Chan has worked in TV and film for over twenty years. He joined the BBC in 1997 where he worked until 2008, and his first TV role was to work with Sir David Attenborough on the series State of the Planet (2000). He is also the founder and managing director of Blue Fire Films based in Bristol. He has been fortunate to travel the world producing and directing on internationally renowned documentaries, and he now brings a wealth of high quality broadcast experience to research and enterprise taking place in the UK.

George's early career started with a PhD in Evolutionary Biology, and he has continued to work alongside scientists and researchers on an almost daily basis - translating and bringing discoveries and ideas to life on screen. It’s been a real privilege for George to be able to film ground-breaking research and meet the people behind it. He got various Zoology, Biology, Animal Biology, and Biological Sciences degrees, from the University of Oxford and University College London between 1989 and 2006.
