Stories To Save Us

Built around the production of the eight bird sequences created for the Birds of America film, these eight, 40-minute episodes invert the traditional "making-of" format. By front-loading crucial information about research and the challenges faced by the production team, we bring viewers to ecology and fresh perspectives on our familiar landscapes through the engaging lens of filmmaking. Each episode concludes with the completed sequence. BirdEd lesson plans and BirdGuides foster post-viewing reflection and learning, and promote connection to communities and local landscapes.
