Our guests Kristin Mosher and Bill Wallauer have spent much of their career documenting chimps for the Jane Goodall Institute, known as JGI. The organization is founded by and named after Dr. Jane Goodall, a scientist and conservationist known for her research on chimpanzees in the Gombe Stream National Park in western Tanzania. Bill Wallauer is JGI’s research videographer and wildlife cinematographer as well as a scientific advisor and chimp expert. Kristin Mosher began her career as Director of Operations for JGI, and then transitioned to a career as a freelance photographer and sound recordist working to promote chimp conservation in East Africa. Their credits include National Geographic, BBC's “Planet Earth," and Disney Nature’s 2012 feature film “Chimpanzee,” among many others. When not following chimps in Tanzania, the couple lives in Syracuse, NY, not far from the main campus of SUNY ESF.

In this episode, we discuss how our guests found their way to wildlife film-making, and learn some tips from their experiences along the way.

From the day she began her legendary chimpanzee research in Gombe, Jane Goodall took an unconventional approach to her subjects. With open eyes and an open mind, she made discoveries that rocked the scientific world, forever changing the way we look at our closest living relatives- and ourselves.

In Storyboards for Science, we dive behind the scenes of scientific storytelling and storytellers. Our aim is to inspire and learn so that we can be a resource for scientists, educators, and makers who are practicing some form of digital storytelling. We explore the way stories exist--both openly and in hidden manners--within the world of science. In essence, where do we begin when we know we want to tell a story about what we’re producing in our chosen fields, and how do we recognize how to continue and with what tools we wish to make stories with? 

As we begin, we’d like to acknowledge that we have the privilege of podcasting today from the ancestral lands of the Onondaga Nation, the center of the Six Nations of the Haudenosaunee, who we honor for their many contributions, including the original philosophy and practice of environmental Stewardship.

We look forward to sharing these conversations, and to inviting you to become a part of them as well.

Whether you are just beginning to explore the mediums of storytelling, or are a professional storyteller looking to hone your craft, this podcast is for you. Let us know what you think. We welcome questions and story ideas. Please contact us at the Digital Storytelling Studio by email at sunyesfdss@gmail.com on find us on Instagram @sunyesfdss
