Vermont Business Magazine Bardo: A Night In The Life took home a New England Emmy award this weekend for audio work by Dave Rice, Audio Engineer; Josh Sicard, Sound Technician; and Joe Egan, Audio Mixer. Bardo is a collaboration between Vermont PBS and Higher Ground to transport viewers from live performances to the life of the performer. The series combines behind-the-scenes conversations between host Ryan Miller of the band Guster and an exciting array of artists, with live HD concert footage filmed by Vermont PBS at Higher Ground.
“Hats off to everyone who worked so hard on Bardo, especially Dave Rice, Josh Sicard, and Joe Egan,” said Holly Groschner, President and CEO of Vermont PBS. “From the phenomenal acts featured at Higher Ground to the high-energy interviews with rockstar host Ryan Miller, Bardo is all about connecting viewers with some of the best music that comes to Vermont. Vermont PBS is proud to have the recognition of its broadcast peers across New England for its high-quality production.”
