While filming inside Monkeyland, the crew found themselves with a stick protecting the camera cart, trying to fight off half a dozen vervet monkeys who took turns charging at the lens box.
Gaia was filmed in the Tsitsikamma forest in South Africa. The forest is home to the southern most elephant population in the world. Scientists seem to agree that there is only one left.
To make the prosthetic fungi, they were picked (in a private forest), frozen, transported 600km to Cape Town, and recreated using silicone molds.
The location where all the Gaia tree scenes were shot was about a 4km trek by foot only through the forest and on a slope of about 50 degrees. It was so slippery that one of the producers had three wipe outs on the first day. All gear and camera had to be carried down that valley and every time a new camera setup or angle was done all had to be moved again. The crew was really fighting with nature on those days, especially shooting one of the main action fight sequences on this steep incline.
After many meetings with the production and costume designers the director felt it necessary to explore that everything their two characters in the forest used and would wear must be hand made. So all their utensils and hunting equipment were handmade, as well as the clothing and garments they wore were also hand stitched, woven or knitted.
