people in that realm and to hear their stories,” he said.
Whisman said prior to working as an assistant to Garrison, she had done some production work at the campus TV station, CMU-TV, and for Grand Junction Rockies games. Producing for RMPBS put her at a new level, she said.
Ball was able to leave CMU ready for the world of filmmaking. He is currently working as a photographer and videographer for a trio of manufacturing companies in Grand Junction. He is also involved in filming a local movie
about dragons and is helping to organize the Grand Junction Film Festival. He has done film work for the Discovery Channel and for Hoptocopter Films.
Garrison and student interns have produced other segments for RMPBS. They include pieces about the sheep and cattle range wars on the West Slope, the history of sugar beets in the Grand Valley, art quilters in Gateway, marble carving in Marble and the symphonic rock and roll orchestra, Grand Junction Rockestra. •
