Alive Day

 

Sean Barney is a former Marine grunt, running for a seat in the U.S. Congress.  His story is certainly inspirational and I'm proud to have worked on this piece.  "Alive Day" marks the 10 year anniversary of when Sean was shot in the neck while on a patrol in Iraq.  I was the field producer for this piece, but also acted as camera, audio and lighting engineer.  I performed the sit-down interviews with each subject in the piece including Sean's former platoon mates. As I asked each of them to recount that horrible day 10 years ago, I could see how emotional they became.  This project was one of the most difficult - but satisfying, I have worked on.
