Multimedia Conservation Stories
Since 2000 Jerry and Marcy have partnered with NGO’s to photograph more than 100 land conservation projects in the region, contributing to the protection of several hundred thousand acres of wilderness and open space. This exposure to compelling environmental issues inspired Jerry to begin producing multimedia stories about some of his projects in 2010. By combining stills, video, and audio interviews into short documentary films, Jerry is able to give more depth to the stories of the people and land he encounters in his work. With several projects completed, Jerry’s multimedia productions are already receiving recognition in the conservation community. His film, The Anderson Farm, recently kicked off the Whaleback Environmental Film and Art Festival and was featured in an episode of thegreenscreen.tv. His film, Freeing the Ashuelot, was screened at last year’s National River Rally in North Charleston, South Carolina.
Jerry’s most recent film projects can be seen below.
