Erika was an impressive one-woman-band for a story we were shooting that required quick thinking, on-the-spot flexibility, technical expertise, and journalistic persistence. For a demanding two-day shoot with multiple moving pieces, I felt very confident that our assignment was in good hands. She was not just a video shooter, but a journalist who went above and beyond to get the footage and interviews we were hoping for!

Erika was an exceptional co-producer and shooter -- tenacious about getting the shots we needed for the story, personable when it came to conducting interviews on a sensitive topic, and communicative with me from start to finish. This was my second time working with her and I hope to do it again in the future!

Like Jones, Fairchild travels to far-off places in search of Biblical antiquities and doesn’t like snakes. In fact, his students call him Indiana Mark. And like the hero of five adventure movies, Fairchild is also a film star, of sorts

There are an estimated 500,000 bison living in North America. They are increasing in part because they are helping restore lands in the U.S. Fewer than 30,000 wild bison live in conservation herds. But in Indiana, bison are helping undo more than a hundred years of environmental damage.
