and U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Project Overview:
Echoes of Cry of the Marsh explores the issue of wetland restoration
through the eyes of Bob Hartkopf, an ecologist and educator who has
worked more than 40 years to revive these environmental assets.
Wetland restoration affects all people living in areas with
industrial-scale agriculture, particularly in the upper Midwest and along
the Mississippi River.
Hartkopf's work and stuggle reminds us that we can find a healthy balance
for our land, that we can strengthen our ecosystem, and that working
for environmental change is possible.
My Role in
Project:
I served as director, editor and chief videographer of
the project. In addition, I also performed the DVD mastering and design
of the DVD labeling and press kit creative work.
Awards:
Echoes of Cry of the Marsh was nominated for an Emmy award
in the Documentary category from the Upper Midwest Chapter of the National
Television Association in 2007.
