BackgroundNHGRI would like to use footage previously recorded for the exhibition, Genome: Unlocking Life's Code, including stock footage and graphics, to develop educational and outreach videos on topics related to the Human Genome Project. The final production videos created will be determined through discussion with NHGRI staff and based upon the ability to optimize the resources provided. The original interviews were produced as a set of four films covering the history of the Human Genome. The interviews captured the thoughts and words of genomic thought leaders. Hours of video footage was recorded, but only a small portion was utilized in the exhibition's interactive. NHGRI proposes to use the remaining footage to create educational and public engagement films that will underscore the historical and social relevance of the Human Genome Project and genomics.In spring of 2013, a new exhibition at the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) opened that focused on the human genome, and who humans are, in the context of the natural world. The 4,000 square-foot exhibition is the product of a partnership between the museum and the NHGRI. The exhibition celebrated the 10th anniversary of sequencing of the human genome and the 60th anniversary of Watson and Crick's discovery of the double helix structure of DNA. After a year at the museum, the exhibit is travelling to other venues throughout the United States, extending its reach to an even broader audience.The exhibition features a number of engaging interactives, including a 32-inch video monitor featuring a timeline on genomics with researchers describing early scientific discoveries, the Human Genome Project, and what's been learned from sequencing the genome. Interviews with researchers involved in current genomic studies communicate their excitement about the future. Throughout the videos, renowned scientists reflect on the challenges and achievements surrounding the Human Genome Project. The scientists also look to a future when researchers can harness the power of DNA in hundreds of new ways, opening up opportunities for research and work in everything from healthcare to agriculture to environmental monitoring.In 2014, 42oN Media on behalf of HISTORY® created four unique videos for the exhibition, Genome: Unlocking Life's Code currently on display at the National Museum of Natural History. The videos chronicled the Human Genome Project from its early beginnings to its effect on science and society. Videos included interviews with genomic luminaries and visionaries. These four unique videos have been viewed by more than a million people at the exhibition and online at the exhibition's website, unlockinglifescode.org.• This effort is to create four short educational and outreach films using footage recorded by the 42oN Media on behalf of HISTORY® as part of its task to produce films on the on topics related to the Human Genome Project that are now part of the exhibition "Genome: Unlocking Life's Code."• Footage not used in production of the exhibition films mentioned above will be used to generate films covering a broad range of genomics topics, such as human history, medicine, genome technology, careers in science, data science, etc. • Products would be made available through the exhibition's web site http://unlockinglifescode.org/ and genome.gov.• An animated infographic on the basics of genomics.2.
