Mistrust & Missed Opportunities

This is the latest episode of Gulf Tides, a web series I am producing about the oil spill for Gulf Restoration Network. The series is a challenge and I try to make each episode like a segment of PBS' Frontline. Covering a subject as huge as the oil spill can be quite daunting, but in this case I've learned to trust the expertise of my client in keeping the stories focused on a particular aspect of the disaster.

I was lucky enough to record the narration from the actor Tim Robbins. Just knowing that there is a big name attached to the series makes me work hard to produce a quality product.

I'm not sure what the future holds for my coverage of the BP oil spill but work like Gulf Tides has been a pleasure to produce. My only hope is that it in some way makes a difference.

Migration to the Marsh

I produced this video for the National Wildlife Federation. It was a great opportunity to express some of the long term concerns that I have as a duck hunter. Although the BP Oil Spill was a stress on our local environment in South Louisiana, we have been in trouble for a long time. Through two great sources, Bob Marshall with the Times Picayune and Dale Humberg, chief biologist with Ducks Unlimited, I was able to tell that part of our story.
