For the Toxic Waters: From Air to Water Waste piece I worked on I decided to use the Canon 5D Mark II again. The camera just produces beautiful images for video and I had the time on this piece to deal with the transcoding and audio sync routine since I knew the piece would run later in the Toxic Waters series

Trailers for Toxic Waters:

One of the interesting things we did with this series is we actually produced trailers for each of the installments in the series. These trailers were meant to not only preview the upcoming video segment but also preview the print story. I interviewed the reporter Charles Duhigg for each trailer so that he could talk about what the next story would cover and inter-cut that interview with footage from the accompanying video.

Next in the Series: Agriculture
How do dairies and agriculture affect drinking water?

Next in the Series: Power Plants
How do power plants effect public water?

Next in the Series: Agriculture
Are faulty sewer systems endangering community health?

Be sure to check out the spectacular work on the series from my former Las Vegas Sun colleague and now New York Times colleague, Tyson Evans. Tyson was part of a small team that put together this interactive map which lets you find polluters near you, and breaks down the data in a very human understandable way.
