Sir George Hubert Wilkins (known as Hubert), Military Cross and Bar, MiD
Hubert Wilkins was born 31 October 1888 in an outback cottage on his parents’ property named Netfield, Mount Bryan East, South Australia. He was the youngest of 13 children, born to Henry and Louisa Wilkins.
He was war correspondent and photographer, polar explorer, naturalist, geographer, climatologist, ornithologist and aviator. As a child, Hubert experienced the devastation caused by drought and developed an interest in climatic phenomena.
If hardship moulded the character of Hubert Wilkins, so also did his passion for nature, music and a desire for knowledge. Enrolled in both the South Australian School of Mines and the Elder Conservatorium School of Music simultaneously, he studied electrical engineering, and singing, playing the organ, flute and cello at the Conservatorium.
It was in a number of part time jobs he learnt the art of blacksmithing, and gained a sound knowledge of the workings of both steam and internal combustion engines. On a trip to Sydney he became interested in photography. Returning to Adelaide he found employment with a travelling cinema and travelled in both South Australia and the Eastern States showing films.
When he was 20 years old (1908) he decided to leave Adelaide and see something of the world. At this time in his life a number of thoughts were forming in his mind, thoughts based upon his past experiences and that were to lead him to follow fixed courses of action. One of the most important of his ideas was to attempt to discover how and why the weather could so dramatically affect people’s lives, as it had done his own. Two forces now took over his life: the need to discover things concerning the world about him, and the need to travel to places that would provide him with the answers to the many questions forming in his mind.
His travels began by stowing away on a ship at Port Adelaide. The ship deposited him in Sydney and he soon found employment as a projectionist, then later as a cinematographer.
On reaching London he obtained work with the Gaumont Company as a cinematographic cameraman and with the Daily Chronicle as a reporter. It was then (1910) that he learnt to fly at Hendon. He did not sit for any of the flying exams, which would have made him a qualified pilot, through lack of money. But his interest in flying was to remain with him for the rest of his life. So too was his passion for photography. Photographs of the time (1911) show him performing photographic stunts. One popular photograph shows him astride the fuselage of a Deperdussin monoplane hand cranking his camera. Despite these promotional stunts Hubert Wilkins was perfecting the art of taking aerial motion pictures. In his autobiography he believed he was the first person to take a movie camera into the air and film the scenes around him.
As a war correspondent and photographer, in 1912 he covered the fighting between the Turks and Bulgarians. From 1913 to 1916 he was second-in-command on Vilhjalmur Stefansson's Canadian Arctic expedition: Wilkins became adept in the art of survival in polar regions, added to his scientific knowledge and conceived a plan to improve weather forecasting by establishing permanent stations at the poles.
Returning to Australia, on 1 May 1917 he was commissioned as second lieutenant in the Australian Imperial Force (Australian Flying Corps). By August he had been transferred to the general list and was at I Anzac Corps headquarters on the Western Front. Appointed official photographer in April 1918, he was tasked with providing 'an accurate and complete record of the fighting and other activities of the A.I.F.' as a counterpart to Captain J. F. Hurley's propaganda work. In June Wilkins was awarded the Military Cross 'for bringing in some wounded men'. With Hurley's departure, he was promoted captain on 11 July and took charge of No.3 (Photographic) Sub-section of the Australian War Records unit. His routine was to visit the front line for part of each day that troops were engaged in combat and periodically to accompany infantry assaults. During the battle of the Hindenburg line, on 29 September he organized a group of American soldiers who had lost their officers in an enemy attack and directed operations until support arrived. Awarded a Bar to his M.C., he was also mentioned in dispatches. He is the only Australian official photographer to have been decorated.
In January 1919, as photographer, Wilkins joined Charles Bean’s mission to reconstruct Australia's part in the Gallipoli Peninsula campaign. He entered the England to Australia air race that year, but his aircraft, a Blackburn Kangaroo, experienced engine failure and crash-landed in Crete; he arrived in Australia by sea in July 1920 and his A.I.F. appointment terminated on 7 September. Engaging in further polar exploration, in 1920-21 he made his first visit to the Antarctic, accompanying J. L. Cope on his unsuccessful voyage to Graham Land. Wilkins next took part in Sir Ernest Shackleton's Quest expedition of 1921-22 on which he made ornithological observations.
Sir Hubert’s adventures continued from his home base in America. On one occasion he gleaned information from the Japanese Consul-General about Japan's intention to destroy Pearl Harbour and invade Singapore. Sir Hubert passed the information to the Allies but was not believed.
He died suddenly at Massachusetts, on 30 November 1958 and was cremated: four months later his ashes were scattered from the ‘Skate’ at the North Pole. Lady Wilkins survived him and wrote affectionately of a husband whose only contact with her for extended periods had been through his letters.

Living in London has given me the opportunity to have an open interpretation of society. I found that London was split between modern and older structures which have helped to create the culture that it brings. Older structures such as Big Ben relate to parliament which symbolise authority and age. These scenes are commonly used in TV News production as they give the reporter a sense of authenticity whereby watchers are able to find the information reliable which helps the media create the image that it wants to create. Tower Bridge connotes the idea of connectivity which is common among the efficient transport links that London offers. Its modernised road shows the development of the new generation. Statues play a large role in London’s history and are able to express different emotions and ideas. The 3 lions at Leister square are a significant symbol to English culture and symbolise loyalty and protection as anyone is welcome in London to share the national pride. Horses are also common in London and connote the idea of independence which is seen in businessmen and commuters. More modern structures such as Oxford Street shops help the new generation to merge with the old fashioned culture of London. Modernised structures such as the Shard and Gherkin have common glass textures which symbolise opportunity, proximity and the idea of looking into a future path that we are able to choose. With relevance to the film industry, using the location of London would be useful in a romantic comedy or films where success and drive to a future goal are key as the culture has a range of aspects that can display the emotions these films would need to bring. My mood board showed common colour themes of red, white and blue. This symbolised ideas of English culture and flag but the colour red could also be interpreted as the colour of authority and romance. Authority would relate to the idea of Parliament and Buckingham Palace being at the centre of London. The colour white connotes ideas of delicacy which is common in fantasy films where there is a modernised set and colours are commonly bright in order to focus on new unique aspects. I chose to incorporate the focus on Pride in my mood board as it is a vital aspect of the new generation in London and is also very important to me. As a culture, we are very accepting of different types of personalities and welcome everyone. Gay pride show a wide range of colours to symbolise the LGBTQ+ community which connote ideas of happiness and joy as the colours are bright and welcoming to particularly young ages. This has inspired me to make a documentary style video based to LGBT discrimination and how the media represents this particular group. A vital aspect of my mood board is the use of cranes in the London skyline. I found that London has a fair distribution of symbolic landmarks which add to its iconic skyline. However these are largely blocked with construction works and cranes therefore I decided to place these images on elevated squares in order to highlight their impact to the image of London. I interpreted this idea of construction as a symbolic change in London society and how the generation is changing for the better by becoming more accepting of different cultures in order to allow anyone to have the opportunity to succeed in their future.

On a personal front, I have been really busy with some exciting projects including ones including Paul Grady's photoshoot, travel plans, and creating some exciting video content.

This woman was "talking to camera" whilst sitting on the bench. She is Sarah Dickins, a reporter for BBC Wales.
She seems a little disconcerted by my attention.
This war reporter set is one of my favorite releases from very hot, it's just so much more interesting that the other stuff out there, I'd much rather see more figures and sets like this than even more tacticool US troops,
Those are cool and all but there's so many, personally I'd love to see a good UN peacekeeper set, or just more foreign military in general, here's hoping they make some more unique sets like this one
