This is Passport

This month, when you tune into the new season of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Television series on PBS, you’ll see some changes.

It’s going to have a little different look: new open, new music, new graphics—and as always—lots of new segments.

Series Producer, Don Cash, says new, shorter segments within episodes will offer viewers more variety.

We’re going to do a few less of the longer segments, and concentrate a little more on doing segments that are a little bit shorter—maybe three, four, five minutes. There’s just a lot of stuff that we want to put on the show. So, we’re going to concentrate a little bit more on doing some shorter things, and hopefully have more new segments than we’ve had in season’s past.

Viewers can still expect to see everything they love about the Texas outdoors on the show—and more. Improved, smaller cameras and micro-copters, help producers to tell stories on a more intimate scale.

These cameras allow you to get closer to things. Especially the Go-Pro cameras. You put a small camera on a kayak that you couldn’t do before. So, it does show a unique angle. And it allows us to really tell a story in a little different way.

The new season of the award-winning Texas Parks and Wildlife television series on PBS premiers the week of October 16. Check your local listings.
