<http://prod3.agileticketing.net/WebSales/pages/list.aspx?epguid=f5f37cf0-576e-419a-ab63-1e6672d4dc64&mdy=8%2F1%2F2015&> 
“*Case Study of ‘Chasing Bayla’” *on Sat., Aug. 1,3:00 p.m. in WHOI’s 
Redfield Auditorium, on Water Street in Woods Hole. The panel, featuring 
WHOI Biologist Michael Moore, Boston Globe reporter Sarah Schweitzer and 
Boston Globe editor Steven Wilmsen, will discuss the award-winning story 
“Chasing Bayla,” an immersive, multi-media piece published by the Boston 
Globe in October 2014.  The story chronicled Moore’s work and his 
efforts to save one particular whale from entanglement in fishing gear. 
Using the written word with a parallel visual story, “Chasing Bayla” 
integrated different ways of telling a story into one form, offering the 
reader the opportunity to have an in-depth experience with the subject. 
The panelists will discuss their roles in the creation of the story, 
which featured over 6000 words juxtaposed with multiple photographs, 
videos, audio recordings and animated illustration; the program will 
highlight other examples of innovative approaches to journalism and 
filmmaking. For more information, go to www.woodsholefilmfestival.org
