World’s fair 2012 Yeosu Korea

On Saturday the World’s fair 2012 in Yeosu Korea will open it’s doors (May 12, 2012 ~ August 12, 2012 (93 days)). The fair consists of exhibition area of 250,000 ㎡ and auxiliary facilities (including Expo Town, Transit Parking Lots, parks, green areas, etc.). The site has the geographical edge that comes from being adjacent to the ocean, and thus, is ideal for realizing the Expo theme, “The Living Ocean and Coast.” The site overlooks Hallyeosudo Marine National Park and Odong Island, and is surrounded by 317 jewel-like islets, having the perfect natural conditions to make the Expo’s theme come alive. The theme of the Expo is “The Living Ocean and Coast” with subthemes of “Preservation and Sustainable Development of the Ocean and Coast,” “New Resources Technology,” and “Creative Marine Activities.” The Yeosu Expo is anticipating participation of more than 100 countries and international organizations, and 8 million visitors.

However I’m proud to say that I’m a little part of this expo.  Shots of “Sahara Wonderland” will be screened in the National Pavilion of Algeria. Among with other footage of the world famous artist Yann Arthus Bertrand and other cinematographers.
