11:03 am
photographer, tv presenter, scientist, biologist, igor ivanovich byshnev. it's nice, yes, that they know, respect, but fundamentally it doesn't decide anything in production yet. for me, emotions were off the charts, during the filming , the heroes were shot. halfway through the film, i just wanted to give up, because it was impossible to film. you fall in love with everyone, who... you have to stop, because if you don't stop, god knows what will happen next, the first time she jumped on the lens, than piglets, but slower than adults, and then she was already jumping under the lens, where her hand was, because her feelings were already telling her that she needed to jump for warmth.

11:06 am
11:07 am
somewhere half a kilometer by half a kilometer for temporary shelter, now they have been released into the wild, already on the second day they united a herd, 15 animals wild cautious animals released the enclosure into one whole at once, you have already shown this film in khantamansiysk at the festival ecological cinema, and how interestingly the viewer receives such films, there was a day of belarusian cinema, one of the films was this one, and i was simply stunned by the interest that the children showed. for me it was such a small revelation, because i traveled a lot, and the most different festivals, probably the most important thing was the perception of completely ordinary simple children, unprepared for what they saw.
11:08 am
if they choose gadgets, the internet and so on, they are documentary or some other film, what we want, then this is what we guilty, we present it in an uninteresting way, we tell about it in an uninteresting way. igor ivanovich is awarded the honorary title of ambassador of the 27th festival, for his contribution to environmental education, development of international good-neighborly relations, research of the humanitarian mission. to save and preserve everything that i have done in cinema and for pro for nature protection, maybe it is connected with the fact that i met wonderful people, they said: do it, this is a separate festival, very important
11:09 am
for me, i actually went there to the first foreign festival, precisely at the dawn of my film activities, a surprise was prepared for me at the festival, a visual reflection. i brought it here to the studio, they presented this award, it is the first time for yugra, you have been making films for more than 20 years, 25, tell me, how much has changed, the possibilities of filming have changed, the possibilities have changed greatly, the possibilities, the technical possibilities have changed greatly, the quality, yes, the most different technologies, cameras, it is very important that with... filming animals has become much more accessible, because when we started, these were batcams, it was some kind of crazy expensive equipment, now anyone can work in 4k.
11:10 am
11:11 am
11:12 am
will rewind for us, well, about 30 years ago, wow, well come on, i don't remember such schemes, so guys, i want to show you this very unique place, interesting in this... in the pine forest there are wood grouse, uh, up to twenty birds can gather in the spring in march, in april, in general, you were probably told in the museum about this bird, a unique bird, there are very few of it left in europe, in many countries it has simply disappeared, but we still have some, where you can come to listen to the song of this bird, an ancient bird, but this was before you started filming, no, i'm a scientist employee, ornithologist, reserve - yes... like this, wow, is it
11:13 am
really me, yes, the wood grouse is still in the reserve, a representative of the pheasant family, the most noble of all birds, the black grouse breed, the wood grouse, back in soviet times they distinguished 12 species of these birds, today there are only two, the stone and the common, until the 14th century the wood grouse was found everywhere, it could be found in all the forests of the eurasian continent. i was in the berezensky reserve, we went there on an excursion, and i remember the museum well, it is very good there, i remember the bathhouse where we were taken, i i remember the hotel, such a rather cozy hotel, i remember that i went out in the morning, ran along some tourist trail, picked a whole basket of aspen mushrooms, i don’t know if i was right in this, because probably nothing can be picked there at all, so to speak, and cut, but i’m just interested.
11:14 am
11:15 am
else, that is, naturally, no hunting anymore, let's look at the following shots, it was not in vain that i started talking about the reserve and i know that your new film is dedicated to the centenary of the berezno nature reserve, let's look at some shots from this work. i can't imagine how much time it takes to capture this spontaneous life of nature, animals, how it should be done, what kind of patience you need to have, what kind of skill you need to have
11:16 am
to capture all this the way you do, it 's still a completely separate art, sometimes my sons start asking, tell me, father, do you have a hobby, i understand that this is the last thing left with since i started making films, i had many different hobbies, i was into everything and did everything, and then yes, cinema, probably on the one hand requires complete dedication, on the other hand, well, some dedication, this is a huge pleasure. i didn’t have to use weapons, there were no such extreme situations when your life depended on whether you could
11:17 am
avoid this contact with the animal world, there is a line that cannot be crossed in behavior. animals, with wild animals, they, as a rule, show this line, for for this you need to know a little biology, why do i feel comfortable working with animals, because by my first profession i am a biologist, yes, there are exceptions in the animal world, yes, there are animals with some kind of abnormal psyche from the point of view of nature, and as a rule, most likely this happens because of a person, in my whole life,
11:18 am
to take a picture near the chicks, so he turned around, bang on the ear, how did he manage to do that, well, these are all the scariest moments, tell me, you probably have tens of hours of video archive, now i will say 55 disks of 3-4 tb, you shot about 100 films, and i know that there are several hundred tv shows that you have been hosting for more than one year. you have been hosting nature programs for 19 years, and i am interested, let's look at the following frames, do you recognize mine, not mine, from which film from the first frames, or still, let's try, let's, well, this is a coot, this is our first film with petrovsky, petrovsky's film,
11:19 am
most likely pripyat, yes, we recognized it right away, of course, of course, how many years have passed, this is ninety-nine, it was time to finish this film, i did not know how to do anything, i did not know, i just took it, went to the store, bought 50 vhs tapes, the best national geographic films, just watched them, that period, it was art-house cinema all over the world, there were great directors, animalists, cameramen, this is usually combined in the soviet union, today cinema has ceased to be
11:20 am
art-house, that is, now the main thing is commercial. success, as a rule, director's works appear very rarely, here it seems to me, what we belarusians do, we are still making national cinema, i finished this film, and we showed it there in several festivals, and it was accepted with a bang, why, by the way, the first festivals were important to me, then i didn’t go to festivals anymore, it was important to establish the theme of the importance of ecology in belarus. environmental cinema, and we shot two, three, four films a year, that is, when i tried to work with western colleagues, we shot the first film , radioactive wolves of chernobyl, and such a serious film, which was the best in the world in some nominations.
11:21 am
even just to approach the flags, he is not able, why? either because of his individual characteristics, or because he lived with a person for a long time, or maybe just because he is a male. males always die first, because females are more important for procreation. henry mix is a famous german director who shoots...
11:22 am
quality programs to try to tell as much as possible about what few people have told before you, very little information, video information about animals, about beasts, about our reserves, national parks, so starting from those years, this is ninety-ninth year, pripyat, polesie, turovsky bow, eh, probably, here the style of work was developed eh, let's call it fast and high-quality, i want us to remember the shots - just from the program. the time of cinema, which existed then on television, and your first interviews, first works, very interesting, graduated from bsu, i
11:23 am
worked for many years as a research fellow in the berezny reserve, defended a candidate's dissertation on the birds of the berezny reserve, but it was always not enough, because well, science, which is only science and has not been brought to consciousness of others, it is, well, probably doomed to... failure, we can just someday lose those objects that we study, in order to take one frame, say, of some scapa that lives on the bolot, you need to sit for a whole day, at least a whole day, that is, in a small shelter, drag very bulky equipment, our equipment is actually bulky, high-quality, but bulky, any studio that works... in the field of television, cinema, it is obliged to have its own equipment, this is quite a lot of money, especially modern equipment, there have never
11:24 am
been any conflicts in the family related to the fact that you can buy a camera or a lens, or you can buy a car or a washing machine, the wife says: we need to finish building the house or make a fireplace, and you say, no, i need another lens. have there been such moments? i built my life like this, starting from my student years, first of all, it’s a camera, films, books, yes, there, something else that was necessary, fortunately i have the same wife, she’s not a biologist, she’s, uh, a musician, therefore, in some supermaterial benefits, no, yes, uh, it's great if after a job well done, you can have a comfortable rest somewhere. there is equipment, it is always in the trunk of the car, the car is normal, working, if possible we shoot every day, that is, it doesn't matter, there are
11:25 am
11:26 am
that is, alone at my age already feature film, probably unlikely, the theme is very, i forgot about it, but in principle it can be, it can be, well, you filmed not only the animal world, there was a very good film about people, thank you for coming, come in, come in, at home, at home, gentleman, what a good evening, holy. it was an amazing time and an unexpected film, but the most important thing is that it was a piece of life, it's not even a film, we lived a year in the village of pogost with these amazing women, by the way, in this film there is just this symbiosis of your experience the ability to remove the atmosphere of nature in order to also remove the life story, yes we
11:28 am
drowned in the river, pripyat, this is pripyat, that is , the river of life, her, her whole life, she overcame it, she remembers it all, but besides that she lives, she preserves traditions, she educates the youth, she is an amazing woman, of course. hello, i am your new district police officer, district police officer, bronislava nikolaevna zykova, i want real cases, so that danger, so that crime, two manuscripts of the most valuable times have disappeared in the museum of the city of svyatopavlovsk
11:29 am
vladimir manomakha, you have something that bothers you, it's good, but a fake, quietly, don't move, you have the original, no, just don't pour it into my ears that the professor's son has it, i checked everything, there is a very important task for you, they can only trust you, you understand, an antique dealer, thank you, professor, semyon kuzmich, yes, i don't need a partner, i can handle it myself, i need it, you will pass on your experience, train a greenhorn, and i look after him, you need to, me, well, hello, yes, from your stas, i will beat it off, and the path will be clear, you will have no obstacles, and you are not such a dot as me i thought, i can't be a woman, i'm not a woman, i'm an opponent, watch the series woman without a sense of humor on the belarus 24 tv channel, they are dedicated to their work, ready to share knowledge, technologies... are developing,
11:30 am
today artificial intelligence rules the world, probably in 50 years the museum will look a little different than it does today. no matter how modern the technical capabilities are, people come to the museum, after all , to touch a genuine historical, art history, literary artifact. and our mission, i i believe that preserving historical memory for the sake of future generations. show one day from your life the forests of belarus are truly our heritage, our beauty, our pride, in order to preserve this wealth, it must be protected from pests and diseases, for more than half a century we have been guarding the protection of forests, our main concern is the health of the forest, protecting it from pests and diseases. watch on the belarus 24 tv channel
11:32 am
11:33 am
leaves this city with one desire: to see those who are called the kings of birds. by the way, the last eagles of europe is also a significant film for me, because it won the brezsky grand prix. just in the period when everything is falling apart, a person who had done all this before, he goes to the swamp and builds a nest for an eagle, so that his eagle can continue to live. i don’t make, let’s say, i practically don’t make films that i don’t want to make, commissioned ones , yes, i tried, nothing works out, and there is no pleasure from the work, and this money is not
11:34 am
are needed, in fact, in all places where the filming of our films was organized, be it azerbaijan, belarus, russia , the russian geographical society, all the same. i declare the topic up to 400 eggs are laid by each female, and in 10 days tadpoles will appear from them, in another month and a half the amazing transformation of the tadpole into a miniature frog will be completed. on the roads, i remember, i still smile very much, uh, the film, which was also awarded the grand prix, the most favorite film, as they still tell me, of the belarusian road service, they they love him, after this film signs of cautious amphibians appeared in belarus, these frogs on triangles, i talked to
11:35 am
one master of soviet animalistic cinema, who taught - one of the republics, and he said, you know, igor, 300 cameramen have passed, maybe three can film nature, but they need to be found somehow, the basics of animalistics will not hurt anyone, no one, anyone, a cameraman of a feature film, there, a tv journalist and so on, well, are you ready, for example, in our academy there is a special course like this lead, if we are talking about temporary moments, so that it was, it is clear that in terms of time, yes, of course, this is probably...
11:36 am
there is not enough time, so for now there is a pause. you have addressed the chernobyl topic more than once, how much life is changing in the chernobyl zone today, the most important thing is probably the crazy natural biological diversity that now exists, yes, radiation, yes, there are problems there, all this, we have already talked about it, we somehow solve all this, yes, the complexity of people's work in these conditions, but these decades the existence of the chernobyl zone - caused an unthinkable... rise in natural diversity, the vital forces of nature, that is
11:37 am
, this was some kind of completely strange conclusion after the chernobyl jungle, when we showed it somewhere on the screen, suddenly in some kind of silence, everyone says, yes, that man is not needed, it turns out, yes, that is, well, yes, he left, and nature, despite the radiation, despite all the cataclysms that happened before, it simply cleared itself in 20 years, it became the nature of europe of the 18th-19th centuries, well, that's it you observing nature, observing the harmony that exists in nature, have you ever thought that the most useless animal on the planet is man, who is trying to destroy everything , spoil everything, yes, the ugliest and the most beautiful, do you think that the most beautiful is sincere? no, but the fact is that we have no choice, we must learn to live in harmony with nature, we must learn to live in... in harmony with each other, this is probably even more
11:38 am
difficult than with nature, otherwise, it will remain only one nature. we try to use our funds as much as possible, and i want us to look at the following shots that we have prepared, a happy person, because i do what i like since the first year i had the opportunity to do scientific work. by the end of my studies i already had experience of some distant expeditions beyond the arctic circle, this is a trip to the great bearded owl, the most aggressive of owls, a little sad story, because professional ornithologists, an englishman and a russian lost each eye each when meeting this owl, why? because the owl flies silently, they check the nests, the owl lives on other people 's nests. well, the person climbs, thinks that this is the nest of some hawk, and there are chicks, but he
11:39 am
does not know, the person climbs, climbs, climbs, intuitively turns around, because he does not hear the flight of the owl, only maybe, there is something some intuition turns around and sees that the owl is a meter away from him, and such, maybe the owl is not afraid of the bear, is not afraid of the person near the nest, to climb such a tree, i do not remember, i am at school the last time i climbed a rope with difficulty, you need to have iron health and good physical fitness. do you train? yes, yes, especially after i started filming in the mountains about 10 years ago, i realized that my training on the plains was not enough, and if i want to work a little more with animals, then i need to keep my physical fitness in shape, i do it, daily exercises for about 30 minutes, for a certain muscle group, for the back, for the arms, for changing to something else, and...
11:40 am
children from morning to evening, from evening to morning, this is wrong approach, example is important, this is how i justify myself, saying that to myself, that i probably should have been an example to my children, they should have looked at me and absorbed something there, they absorbed it or not, another question, my wife was really involved in raising them, we tried to show what was interesting to us, let's say i received the first fee for my book, we spent it, went to moscow and took the children to all the theaters. they saw all this, remembered it, didn't remember it, but at
11:41 am
least we tried to do it with ourselves they took, that is, first of all, the reserves, it is clear that they immediately hung up some cameras, they clicked something there, filmed, and we were happy, like, yes, hurray, there will be successors, then all this went into some other interests, the eldest son nikita, he also graduated from biophag, he had a successful career, a master's degree, postgraduate study, he was engaged in human genetics at the academy of sciences, then suddenly dad says, i'm here at... yes, to you after seven or eight years of work , some time passed quite recently, he said dad, i'm leaving you, well, that's okay there is he while there were some simple he mastered.
11:42 am
i respect him very much, i would like to take from my father with his ingenuity constant ingenuity, well, a little bit from my mother also did not hurt, wow, well, great, this is the eldest son, this is nikita, the eldest son, he is a techie, so here is a copter, all sorts of action cameras, some new technologies, this was his from him, and this is us filming our wonderful swamp dweller, yes, here is the story when ... at least two cameras of ordinary operators plus a copter, well, as an option, this is also by the way, where we live, probably a kilometer away from us, maybe even somewhere here, stop, don't go far, yes-yes-yes, stop, stop picking berries, it's a nature reserve after all, come on - now
11:43 am
a wolf howl, right? but i was surprised, you know, by the shots of my youngest son , i prepared them, who is already talking about his profession. when the filming process is underway, when there is already some action, personally, i simply forget about everything, about time, about pain, and what flowed away there, i
11:44 am
just get very such emotions, diverse, new emotions, i don't know, i can compare them as, you know, the first school kiss, when it's just around the corner, you're afraid for your breath - you hold your breath and just feel the pulse throughout your body, well, that's the kind of emotions i get from shooting nature, i get high, i already have a studio, i already have some developments, i already have some experience, some results, that is, i have, i have equipment, no need... student money there, 30 rubles to divide up, what will go to film, and what to food, all that's left is to work, well , do you think he'll be able to find the same decembrist as your wife, who left the city for 40 years, her musical career and surrendered, so to speak, to your hobby and
11:45 am
your passion, will not find, there is no other woman like natasha, what do you value most in your wife? that in the evening you read books aloud to her? yes, and in the morning i bring a cup of coffee to bed, if possible, i love her, she is simply very sincere, very truthful, despite the fact that it is difficult to live with this, selfless, she is interesting, infinitely interesting, they came, signed, and it turned out to be eight eighty-eight, well, how much will 35 be this year, i can’t, to comprehend it completely, until now, i am interested in watching her constantly, what she does, how she does it, and i am interested in her opinion, judgment, she is the harshest critic, yes, when i edit, she writes music,
11:46 am
11:47 am
of the yard, this natural world with my brother sergei, also so unusual for me personality, he is 4 years older than me, also has an award from the president, like me, but already in the field of painting, he is a wonderful icon painter, he makes magnificent mosaics , he loved to draw, i loved to take pictures, we loved to travel, we loved, well, as
11:48 am
if we walked with a gun then, at the time of growing up i began to think, so who am i after all, what do i want from life, because it is one thing for adults to tell you, and lead you by the hand, everything, everything is written down, everything is wonderful, in general, my first thoughts were that i would be an okhtoved, parents grabbed their heads, there somehow... collectively decided that there would be a minsk biophage, after university and i was an authority for my parents.
11:49 am
for documentary films, the script is not so important, because the situation itself can change at any moment, and how do you write a script in general? i write some kind of scenario development with assumptions of what can be, but in any case, this development must have some idea. if we return to science, there are scientists who come up with a model, and then adjust to this model data, this is wrong, this is wrong, because the right thing is when the model simply describes a certain pattern, and so it is with the script, yes, if we come up with something and start to adjust it to this script, i think this is wrong, later, when everything has passed, when the filming period has passed, taking into account what we have done, we can rewrite the script, based on the fact that we have received understanding. of course, of course, but all the same we remain in the same ship in which we began our voyage, well, for a feature film this is not will do, there will have to be a rigid scheme
11:50 am
of existence, yes, yes, yes, yes, the americans have such an expression that if a person is engaged in his favorite business for a long time, then money and recognition will definitely find him. i think that well for our mentality and for our area, let's say so, of existence, money does not always come to people who. byshnev igar ivanovich, deputy director of the civil organization of akhov birds of belarus, zubrytsky pavel anatolievich, operator
11:51 am
of the belarusian video center, shunkevich sargey yuryevich, the director of the enterprise post about. author's collection of popular science chernobyl jungle 20 years without a person of the belarusian media center. in the warehouse. i was born on christmas, i was 40 years old, that 's it, that was the fortieth anniversary, well not bad, yes i spent my 40 years, the next nomination of the competition is the best operator, igor byshnev, a million questions about nature, the representative office of the international television and radio company mir in the republic of belarus, if our works evaluate me, our natural works evaluate here so, it means we have done something. real, worthwhile, without this it would be more difficult to work, i will say frankly, and i do not hide
11:52 am
from anyone the assessment that our works receive. i once read in an interview of yours that you said that if a person lived according to the laws of nature, life would be more harmonious, and what do you mean, what laws of nature do you think need to be transferred to our human life, two wolves, two males, they both... want to be the head of the pack, they meet and start fighting, they fight until one understands that he is weaker, and he simply - lies down on the ground, puts his neck forward, and a stronger wolf will never touch him after that, never, at least this example, but does a person follow this example, of course not,
11:53 am
that is, never... animals do not kill more than necessary, and today i do not understand a lot of our, our behavior, human behavior, and i always say that you can walk endlessly and safely through a night forest, through a night city, god knows what kind of city and what kind of night it is, if there is a god, then it is nature, you know, in my studio. in which the object is located, such a specific riddle for you, i wonder if you can guess, a snake in syrup, it's me, yes, this is her phrase, my favorite mother-in-law, zhana daletovna snake in syrup, that's how she characterizes me, sometimes she characterized me, everyone remembered this, first of all my wife, in general, i never
11:54 am
took offense at this, because, there is still a lot, but i understand that the program is not endless, so a quick survey, as always we have a short question, a short answer. your zodiac sign, capricorn, your favorite dish, from wife, a dish your wife made, your favorite drink, probably tea, horo, your favorite place on the planet, where all my, it's a nature reserve, the country that impressed you the most. belarus, when
11:55 am
you return after a long trip. to an expedition and realize that you don't know it, it's much better, your main flaw, i have difficulty saying no, when sometimes i need to say no, your main advantage, passion and devotion, what is the secret of your success, in love, what you don't forgive people, betrayal, what do you think, the meaning of life, well, in life itself for others? and what is igor byshnev's happiness? i understand that i am a happy person, and this is probably the most important thing, what it is, i do not want to analyze. i have been a happy person all my life, i was a happy person because i did what i love, i live, i communicate with those whom i love,
11:56 am
i respect, this is a great luxury in this world. and i suddenly understand that this luxury is present in my life, thank you very much, thank you very much for our conversation, for coming to our studio, i want to wish you health, physical strength, so that it would be enough for those shots that we will still see, i am sure, thank you really for what you have already done for our cinematographic, let's say art and for...
