‘A Thousand More’ Receives Casey Medal Honorable Mention
MediaStorm's A Thousand More received an honorable mention in the 2012 competition for the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism about the lives of children, youth and families in the U.S. A Thousand More tells the story of a family determined to give their disabled son a whole and vital life. In the midst of a great burden, one small child – with a seemingly endless supply of love – is the blessing that holds the family together. The judges honored the film saying, "Produced from start to finish over a single week, this piece is a magnificent, nuanced and soulful story about a family’s devotion to their child who is living with a fatal genetic disease. An inspiring and memorable account that gives the viewer the time and space to breathe and think and smile and cry." The Casey Medals are a project of the Journalism Center on Children and Families at…

MediaStorm Releases New Client Project for the United Nations Forum on Forests
We are pleased to release Finding Balance: Our Future, Our Forests, produced in collaboration with the United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF) for the upcoming Rio+20 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. Part of the UNFF’s mission is to change the way policymakers view forest-related issues. Previously forest preservation was considered an environmental issue. In order to create more lasting and far-reaching change, the UNFF believes it is necessary to also include social and economic values in discussions about forest preservation. Forests are, in many complicated ways, interconnected with the lives of people and cultures. MediaStorm worked with UNFF to create a piece that shows the landscape view of this issue, including why forests are important, why they are under threat, what is at stake, and what might be the solution.

After watching the films, Brian invited Phillip, Maggie, and one of the films' producers, Tim McLaughlin, (producers Jennifer Redfearn and Rob Finch were not able to attend the event) to the stage for a Q&A with the audience.
