THORN TO BE WILD: YOUNG FILMMAKERS HELP OUT NATURE

Carey Christie, filmmaker and Captain Awesome of all things artistic in Seattle, has just finished the editing of an amazing film project overseeing high school students filming, editing, and producing a nature documentary about the efforts of the Nature Consortium (featuring Restoration Project Coordinator and nature extraordinaire, buphalo) to reintroduce biodiversity in the Duwamish greenbelt of Seattle. There will probably be several screenings of the film, called Thorn To Be Wild, around the Seattle area in the coming months, and it is sure to make news as eco-everything creeps more and more into the mindset of everyone. Shown here are the rough cut and the "making of," both available on YouTube; the final cut will be available on YouTube shortly.
