Visually appealing! Pricks all five senses.

Who would have thought that a story about harvesting wild rice would be so interesting?

I had read previous stories about the Ojibwa tribes harvesting the rice by hand... the old fashioned way. But this piece brought the story alive.

Often times radio pieces include gratutious ambient sound and you just accept it as part of the formula. It's there and then it's gone.

But the producers of this audio postcard wove through the sounds so beautifully that it never once distracted from the story or made me wonder, "what was that?"

This is what storytelling.. for any medium... is all about.
