Story Surge Stock is owned and operated by people who understand television and film production. We have experienced the struggles that come with finding and purchasing stock footage and have created this site with the aim of supplying an easy-to-use service with transparent pricing and fast turnaround times.
Unlike other stock sites, all the footage you will find here has been selected and curated from a pool of talented and experienced natural history filmmakers known personally to us at Story Surge Stock. It is our aim to showcase the work of these filmmakers.
We focus on the individual behind the footage, the operator, and showcase their incredible work to the potential buyer, making the process more personal and easier to navigate. Should you have any questions about our footage, or wish to contribute with your footage, please get in touch.
Emmy winning filmmaker, Alex Sletten, has been travelling the globe for almost 20 years, following the planet’s most elusive creatures into some of the most inhospitable environments imaginable, from the jungles of Patagonia to the deserts of Qatar.
Alex’s passion for wildlife cinematography has resulted in 25 programs and over 150 hours of high rated broadcast television, delighting audiences on multiple major US and European networks.
During his travels, Alex has befriended many talented and experienced natural history filmmakers around the world, all of whom have repositories of never-before-seen footage that we are excited to share with you. It is Alex’s mission, through Story Surge Stock, to bring this footage to the light of the world.
