Video Production Services

Television

It's been estimated that over 90% of all living species and 99.9% of all individual organisms are smaller than a dime. Our mission is to bring this dominant, yet largely unseen living world to the attention of audiences through compelling video images. We work with producers of nature and science television programming to develop captivating sequences at the macro- and micro- levels. Recent projects such as the PBS series, Intimate Strangers, two Discovery Channel Productions, and two CBC Nature of Things episodes have involved subjects from bacteria and archaea to dust mites and forest canopy insects. Our tools include: advanced microscopy techniques; specialized lighting; motion control; and, digital recording for highest quality images.

Productions and Co-productions:

We have written and produced many projects for other producer/distributors including a five video series "Science in Action" for the Holt Rhinehart and Winston, Modern Biology Program. In 1994 we designed and produced a laserdisc program on Cell Biology for the college text Invitation to Biology, by Curtis and Barnes, Worth Publishers. Through the 1980s we designed and produced three major science series for Coronet Films (The Biological Science, Atmospheric Science, and Cell Biology). We continue to be interested in forming relationships with museums, publishers and distributors of biology education programming, as writer/designers, consulting biologists, and producers of specialized footage.
