Navajo Power Seeks to Rectify Energy Injustice in the Navajo Nation

I handled location audio for this documentary feature on Navajo Power and the effort to bring sustainable energy to communities deep in the Navajo Nation. I’ve worked in this region multiple times on Navajo-focused productions — the territory is vast, remote, and acoustically complex.

Field recording here means capturing ambient sound that reflects the landscape: wind across high desert plateaus, the hum of emerging solar infrastructure, and the voices of community members for whom reliable power is not a given. Interview conditions vary widely — some are controlled sit-downs, others are in the field on active construction or at a family’s home. Flexibility and fast setup are essential.
