A self-taught wildlife cinematographer from Ballinasloe is set to make his television debut<\/p>\n

Aughrim native Jack Kelly will appear on BBC Springwatch at 8 tonight, showcasing footage of basking sharks filmed off Ireland\u2019s Atlantic coast.<\/p>\n

Jack has combined a background in marine biology with a practical, field-driven approach to filmmaking.<\/p>\n

His work focuses on capturing authentic wildlife behaviour in real conditions, often relying on instinct and timing where moments cannot be repeated.<\/p>\n

Jack\u2019s creative style is also influenced by his background in music, which he uses to shape pacing, tone, and emotional impact within his work.<\/p>\n

The Springwatch presenters are excited about Jack’s contribution to tonight’s programme<\/p>\n
