Video Series: Southern Lakes Wildfire Strategy (2024)
The Southern Lakes Wildfire Strategy is a collaboration between Carcross/Tagish First Nation and Kwanlin Dün First Nation. These four videos tell a story about changing wildfire conditions and how our communities are adapting. This work was supported through funding from Climate Change Preparedness in the North Program.
The videos were created using a combination of hand painted backdrops, and digital animated components. The voices were recorded amongst C/TFN and KDFN Citizens. Original music was recorded specifically for the videos. The scripts were written as a result of collaborative efforts between C/TFN and KDFN communication specialists. Yukon Graphic Recording created the storyboards, original animated frames, and edited the videos.
