#history #china #lakedistrict Missed out on Part 1?! Watch from here    • Voyage East: In the footsteps of Sir John ...   Steve Wharton retraces Sir John Barrow's journey from Ulverston, England to Vietnam and China as part of the first British embassy to the Far East. What happened AFTER they met the Emperor? The Macartney Mission is seen by many as the event which defines the start of modern Chinese history. Voyage East blends historical accounts and artworks with contemporary travel vlog, AI generated imagery and traditional storytelling. Steve's presenting style conveys the information in a easy-to-understand way. Sir John Barrow's own words are brought to life by Lancashire voice actor John Hewson. The soundtrack mixes traditional Chinese music recorded by guzheng player Li Meiqi with modern interpretations of popular Chinese tunes published in Sir John Barrow's 1804 'Travels In China' by musicians Emmanuel Quartier (South Africa/Belgium), Steve Wharton (UK), Su Weiran (China) and Nina Waddington (Japan/US). Co-produced by Dong Dazong, Voyage East presents a balanced view of a turning point in international relations with a backdrop of modern Asia. It tells the story of Western hopes and Asian realities through the personal connection between the film-maker and subject.
