Power of Pollinators
Watch this 6-minute film and explore what pollinators are, learn what services they provide, experience the astonishing diversity of pollinators (particularly wild bees) found in North America, and learn how everyone can help protect pollinators in their communities.
The Power of Pollinators was co-produced by Days Edge Productions and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios and hosted and narrated by Dr. Samuel Ramsey.
Sym-BEE-o-sis
Sym-BEE-o-sis follows a team of researchers as they unravel the mysteries of the bee-plant-microbe symbiosis and explore the unintended consequences of our reliance on agrochemicals.
Through beautiful cinematography (including super macro, high speed, time-lapse, and inside-the-nest footage), Sym-BEE-o-sis gives audiences an unprecedented window into the lives of bees — particularly the wild, native bees that play an indispensable, often forgotten role in both agricultural and natural ecosystems.
This 17 minute video was co-produced by Days Edge Productions and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios.
Seeker #BeeWeek
In partnership with Seeker, the celebration of bees and pollinators continued after the PBS broadcast premiere throughout #BeeWeek. The week-long initiative (October 23-28, 2021) spanned Seeker’s platforms on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube with original content about native bees, pollinator health, and emerging research.
#BeeWeek culminated in an Instagram Live Q&A event (October 28 at 7pm ET/4pm PT) with Dr. Sammy Ramsey from the USDA and Clay Bolt from World Wildlife Fund. A recording of the event is available on InstagramTV now.
