PBS

National Geographic Television's Wild Chronicles called on Camino Media to produce stories for PBS broadcast featuring two environmental threats in Europe.  One found our crew surrounded by mako and blue shark hauled in to the Spanish port of Vigo for sale locally and abroad.  The other sent our crew out to harvest in Penedés and a traditional wine festival in Sitges as a reminder of the heritage that climate change is challenging European wine growers to protect.

"The material you sent us was excellent and was a vital part of the story.  Our editor was raving about how the cameraman got so many good shots, sequences, cutaways and angles.  I could tell from the tape that interviewing was a challenge and you coaxed out several usable soundbites.  Thank you." Gayle Young, Producer for National Geographic's Wild Chronicles.

Also on PBS we show how Europeans are living with wolves returning to the countryside they once roamed.  Livestock breeders are countering the threat with the nearly forgotten tradition, and natural deterrent, of guard dogs.  From the remote northwestern mountains of Spain to the wide open pastures on the central plains, our crew produced a story for National Geographic's Wild Chronicles about how the mastiff guard dog population in Spain is making a comeback in parallel with the wolves' own.

The award-winning Nature series airing on PBS kicks off its 26th season with scientists racing to solve the mystery of honeybees' "colony collapse disorder" resulting in the die-off of an insect crucial to the human food chain.  Partisan Pictures called on Camino Media crew to help tell the story evolving in Andalusia, Spain - home to more professional beekeepers than anywhere else in the EU.

"Thanks again for delivering all that was promised on such short notice.  We were very happy with the shoot!"  Whitney Johnson, VP of Production for Partisan Pictures.

Producer Doug Shultz returned to Andalusia one year later to feature the endangered Iberian lynx in Partisan Pictures' production of The Loneliest Animals for the 27th season of Nature on PBS.  Doñana National Park in Spain's southwest was the setting where Camino Media provided complete camera crew and Varicam equipment to profile a delicate captive breeding program where the world's most endangered feline may be saved.
