- A look at the unforeseen consequences of advanced technological devices used in the medical field.
- Set in Fall 2001 at Blair University, a motley crew of college students spring into action when forced to face a campus-wide mental health crisis.
- Hosted by Brooke Burke-Charvet, a hidden camera television show developed for teens in which each episode reveals the widespread goodwill in our world by secretly capturing heroes in action.
- Twenty years ago Natalie Merchant recorded her first solo album - 'Tigerlily' - which sold five million copies and launched her post-10,000 Maniacs career. In those two decades both she and the songs from 'Tigerlily' have matured. Last summer Natalie re-recorded the 11 songs and on November 6th they'll be released in a bonus package, CD + DVD called 'Paradise Is There.' The accompanying film - 'Paradise Is There: The New Tigerlily Recordings' was produced by Oceans 8 Films. Natalie's entire musical life is encapsulated in this very personal film, which digs deep into the music through live performances, archival footage, and interviews. Her fellow musicians, friends and impassioned fans share how the songs of 'Tigerlily' have influenced them over the past 20 years, and speak to how the power of music itself affects us in profound, lasting, and uplifting ways.
- During President Obama's terms extreme energy extraction grew faster than anyone could have predicted, putting the 17 million people in America who live within one mile of a new gas or oil rig in harm's way.
- 'Dear Governor Cuomo' is a concert protest film aimed at influencing New York state's decision to ban hydraulic fracturing - fracking - or adopt it. Featuring local activists including Mark Ruffalo, 'Melissa Leo', Natalie Merchant, Pete Seeger, Citizen Cope and scientists like Sandra Steingraber, the film - a blend of 'The Last Waltz' and 'An Inconvenient Truth' lays out the science and facts behind the decision and encourages the governor to join the anti-fracking majority in his state. Though focused on the issue in New York, the education, and incredible music, are relevant in the 34 states that already allow fracking.
- Ten years ago Hurricane Katrina devastated the coast of Louisiana. Five years later the Deepwater Horizon exploded and spilled more than 200 million gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico, the worst ecologic disaster in North American history. Amazingly those aren't the worst things facing Louisiana's coastline today. It is that the state is fast disappearing. When on Earth Day 2010 BP's Deepwater Horizon exploded and sank many in Louisiana predicted it would change the state's coastline forever, both its economy and its people. How has the coast changed in the past five years?
- Antarctica lives in our dreams as the most remote, the most forbidding continent on Planet Earth. It is a huge land covered with ice as thick as three miles, seemingly invulnerable, cold and dark for eight months of the year. Yet Antarctica is also a fragile place, home to an incredible variety of life along its edges, arguably the most stunning, breathtaking and still-pristine place on earth. The one constant is that it is constantly changing, every season, every day, every hour. I've been fortunate to travel to Antarctica many times; most recently with 3D cameras, a first for the continent. The result is our new film, Antarctica: On the Edge.
- A legacy built and inspired by aviation, Cole Palen's Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome proudly flies his vision into present day.
- Everywhere you look in Southern Louisiana there's water - rivers, bayous, swamps, the Mississippi River, the Gulf of Mexico. And everyone in Cajun Country has a water story, or two or three or more. Its waterways support the biggest economies in Louisiana - a $63 billion a year oil and gas industry, a $200 million a year fishing business, tourism and recreational sports.
- What started as one man's quixotic dream has turned to reality. For the past three years, the 65-foot Schooner Apollonia has been delivering goods up and down the Hudson River by sail sans fossils fuels - a throwback to a day when there were 1200 such boats on the river each day. It turns out buyers prefer the non-polluting, anti-Amazon way of making deliveries.

- At the State University of New York at New Paltz...the past is but a prelude, and this day a stage upon which you glimmer, and gleam, and shine. It is never too early to be who you want to be.
- For many years, the Hudson River, like so many waterways across the U.S., was treated like an infinite waste barrel, a receptacle for poisonous chemicals and hazardous waste. During the past forty years, thanks to a committed group of environmentalists and their agencies, the river has become markedly cleaner, a far more welcoming place for small business and community investment. However, new threats loom on the horizon once again.
- The documentary follows three Hudson Valley residents over the course of a 10-week TMI Project storytelling workshop presented at The Mental Health Association in Ulster County (MHA). Along the way, the participants experience the transformative power of true storytelling; they face mental illness, childhood neglect and addiction head-on; and, ultimately, share deeply personal stories about love, loss and triumph.
- The impact on the most unique collection of endemic wildlife in the world has been heavy; too many people from the outside world threatening the future of this one-of-a-kind place.
- For two weeks in May, our One Ocean Media Foundation helped organize, and film, a unique learn-to-swim project on the remote Maldivian island of Eydafushi. Despite living just a couple feet above sea level, many of the locals here never learn to swim. With the support of the SLOW LIFE Foundation and the Soneva Fushi Resort, our goal was to get moms and kids more confident in the water, in part as a means to impress upon them the importance of taking better care of the beautiful ocean that surrounds them. At the end of the two weeks, the forty-eight third-graders and eighteen burka-clad mothers who had come each day for lessons put on masks, fins and snorkels and, for many of them, were for a first time able to see the water world below the surface. Like many corners of Planet Ocean the Maldives suffer from a variety of ills, mostly man made: Overfishing. Plastic pollution. Rising sea levels due to a warming ocean. And acidification. Teaching these incredible families to swim was hopefully a first step towards encouraging them to be even better guardians.
- The Hudson River has defined cultures and communities in the Hudson Valley for generations. From the Native Americans who preceded European settlers, to the vast pre-industrial fishing and trading cultures, to the present day communities who view it as a keystone of tourism and quality of life, the River has always been a defining characteristic of the Hudson Valley. The relationship between the river and its neighbors has not always been a positive one - but each time its safety has been threatened, there have always been those who are ready to fight for it. Today, myriad environmental organizations, communities, artists and musicians are bound together by their efforts to help protect its future and tell the story of its past.
- Considered by many to be the 'greenest' Governor in the U.S., California's Jerry Brown administers a state that is both an innovator in green energy ... and the third largest producer of oil and gas in the nation. Now in his fourth term as governor, with oil and gas production growing, Governor Brown is at risk of losing his reputation for being green as he refuses to slow production in his state. Produced by Mark Ruffalo.
- A Promotional video for Schenectady County Community College featuring students across multiple majors.
- In the 18th century sloops were the workhorses of New York Harbor and the Hudson River; with the advent of train and truck delivery, ships fell out of favor in the U.S. Until the late 1960s, when activist/musician Pete Seeger and his unique environmental group, Clearwater, built a boat modeled after those earlier versions to help educate and draw attention to environmental pollutions then wracking America's First River. Launched in 1970s, among the 'Clearwater's' first sails was to Washington D.C., to deliver petitions to Congress that eventually helped create some of the country's first environmental laws, particularly the Clean Water Act of 1972. Ever since the wooden ship has come to be recognized up and down the Hudson, as it continues its mission of education and environmental protection. During the summer of 2016, the boat was in dry-dock being repaired and we followed the restoration from beginning to relaunch. The film is both a link to the past and a look to the future: In June 2017 the 'Clearwater' will again sail to D.C., this time carrying petitions asking for the continuation of the environmental protections we have, but are at great risk. The film is also a look at the history of activism in the Hudson Valley, where many believe today's environmental movement was born, led by Pete Seeger and others. (A 20-minute version of the finished doc will be available on 6.15.)
- On its 315-mile journey from Lake Tear of the Clouds in the heart of the Adirondacks to meet the Atlantic Ocean in New York Harbor, the Hudson River and the tributaries that feed it give life to our communities. Decades of progress have vastly improved water quality in the Hudson River, but much work remains to achieve the goals of making the river and its tributaries safe for swimming, healthy for wildlife and fit for drinking. Riverkeeper and our thousands of citizen scientists, volunteers and members provide the data and the people power to continue the restoration of the Hudson River.
- 2017–TV EpisodeMany fish use Hudson River tributaries to move between feeding, nursery, and spawning grounds, but thousands of dams block their way, dramatically shrinking accessible habitat and causing declines in fish and other wildlife. And now many of these dams have fallen into disrepair.
