We are WETA. As our friends at PBS News gear up for convention coverage over the next few weeks, we wanted to engage our primetime audience with a promo that celebrates WETA's storied legacy as a leader in public media in our nation’s capital. It was a lot of fun to dive into the WETA vault with Skye Beitler to uncover some great clips from our past. We are honored to feature the legendary voiceover talent of Paul Anthony, who has been a cornerstone of WETA productions for decades, and to pair his iconic voice with a powerful score created by our friends at Stephen Arnold Music. Producer / Writer: Dylan Wilbur Producer / Director / Editor / Photographer: Skye Beitler Voiceover: Paul Anthony Score: Chad Cook, Mack Price, Paul West, Jesus Garcia, Noelle D. at Stephen Arnold Music
