river defender portrait: carolyn marks blackwood
For each threat the Hudson River has ever faced, there’s always been a proportional force working to protect it. A cast of characters ranging from sailors to farmers to citizen-scientists emerge as heroes, tirelessly defending “America’s first river.”

city on the water
Waterways like Brooklyn’s Newtown Creek and Queens’ Flushing Meadow, once thought ruined forever by industrial and manmade pollution are making a comeback. From the Billion Oyster Project to Dragon Boat races, from the Gowanus Canal to the Harlem River, there is brand new activity on all of the waterways that surround NYC.

music by Devin Pickering
My process for scoring isn’t necessarily about the genre as much as it is about the story. Whatever the story, the character, or the emphasized emotion is, determines the instrumentation and the approach I take to the recording. Every movie has its own sound, and I really enjoy the process of discovering that sound and coming up with new ways to deliver different emotions and information through music.
