As a video journalist, writer and new media gal I am lucky to have the chance to explore the new frontier of information. I have five years of experience working in web media projects small and large. I graduated from the Dodge College of Film and Media Arts at Chapman University with a degree in Television and Documentary Production. I was the Video Producer at Sprig.com, a green site owned by the Washington Post.Newsweek Interactive (WPNI) from 2007 to 2009. In February of 2009, I started work as a freelance video journalist in New York City. I am now a New York Editor and Video Producer for Inhabitat — the largest green design blog on the web. I’m available for freelance work, if you have an idea, I have a camera! var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?

I get to meet a lot of pretty interesting people. In November I attended the Global Green Sustainable Design Awards in New York and had a chance to talk to <a href="http://inhabitat.com/video-exclusive-inhabitat-talks-to-adrian-grenier-and-peter-glatzer-of-shft-com/">Peter Glatzer and Adrian Grenier</a> of <a href="http://www.shft.com/">SHFT.com</a> with my friends at Inhabitat.com. These two make a pretty inspiring pair and the work they are doing shows their dedication to green. </p>http://www.britliggett.com/post/15202536290http://www.britliggett.com/post/15202536290Mon, 02 Jan 2012 16:50:37 -0500adrian grenierpeter glatzershftshft websiteadrian grenier websitegreen websitevideo producervideo journalistvideo producer new yorkvideo journalist new york<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/31849556?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="400" height="224" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Peak Organic Brewing Company is dedicated to the best ingredients.

Henrik Fisker definitely falls into that category. He’s a luxury vehicle designing legend — he’s had a hand in designing quite a few Bond cars — and has decided to try his luck at the electric vehicle world. His first vehicle out of Fisker Automotive is the Karma. </p> <p>It is the essence of beauty with an electric motor (and an extended range gas generator). It will make you swoon. </p>http://www.britliggett.com/post/13453861116http://www.britliggett.com/post/13453861116Mon, 28 Nov 2011 09:43:36 -0500fisker automotivehenrik fiskerfisker karmainterviewvideo journalistgreen video journalistenvironmental video journalistvideo producergreen video producerenvironmental video producernew york video producernew york videographerbrit liggett<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/29OvdeCvsa8?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><span>Wow.

I made this video for The Diabetes Education and Camping Association, a group that helps diabetes camps around the world with collaboration, information and resources. Sending children with type 1 diabetes to diabetes camps gives them the tools they need to live healthy happy lives. It also gives them a network of friends and role models who can help them strive to stay in control of their disease. </p> <p>Check out <a href="http://www.diabetescamps.org">www.diabetescamps.org</a> to learn more. A worthy cause, most definitely! </p>http://www.britliggett.com/post/11914936826http://www.britliggett.com/post/11914936826Tue, 25 Oct 2011 15:02:00 -0400diabetes campsdiabetestype 1 diabetesdiabetes non profitnon profit videographernon profit video producernon profit videosnon profit video journalism<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-9G7mIk0pm8?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>I had a blast making this video about section two of the High Line park in New York City.
