Over Arizona beautifully captures the dramatic diversity of our state and vividly showcases Arizona as one of the most incredible landscapes in America. It is a spectacular aerial journey over vast deserts, verdant pine forests, sparkling lakes and rivers, rolling grasslands, glistening snow-capped peaks, gleaming cities and the striking landforms of the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley. The program's stunning photography, informative narration and evocative original musical score will entertain and educate audiences of all ages about the distinct splendor of Arizona.

State-of-the-Art Technology

The soaring aerial view of Arizona is enhanced by High Definition Television (HDTV) technology. Over Arizona was photographed by the Emmy Award-winning producer and videographer team from KCTS (Seattle Public Television) using a Sony HDC500 Camera custom-mounted on the nose and side of a helicopter. Filming was accomplished primarily during the "golden hours" when sunlight is warm and shadows are long. Over Arizona is broadcast in stereo and closed captioned for the hearing impaired.
