Who Rules the Forest?

They are one soul, the Mbuti Pygmies and the Ituri forest that shelters them. Throughout their history these native people of the Congo have relied on the bounty of their rain forest home, taking only what they need to survive. Photographer Randy Olson takes you into their world, already thrown off balance from outsiders marching in.

Judge's Comments (Deanne)

This multimedia piece has a nice flow, combining very strong, tightly edited photography along with the photographer's narrative. The audio helps with the understanding of the story and makes for a successful multimedia presentation. We would like to have heard more natural sound mixed in, however.

Usability problems like there being no indication of the length of each section and no scrubber to advance through each section, got annoying.
