Documenting Nature: Film Clips, from GreenScreens and the Coastal Media Project is the Audubon Society’s February program. It will be presented February 20 from 7:30 to 9:00 pm at Farrand Hall, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.
This special evening features a free curated selection of film clips by talented UCSB student filmmakers telling vital and timely stories about our local environment. Chris Jenkins will introduce the film clips and describe how students with a range of backgrounds work in teams to leverage their collective production skills and environmental knowledge, creating exceptional environmental films as part of the Coastal Media Project and the GreenScreen environmental media production program. While not specifically bird-focused, the collection reveals insights on wildlife habitat, conservation, and the next generation who will work to protect the natural world.
Chris Jenkins has dedicated himself to international documentary filmmaking for more than two decades. His work has widely and for the past 13 years, he has taught filmmaking in the UCSB Department of Film & Media Studies. As head of production, he finds joy in helping students realize their potential as storytellers.
