In addition to the linear airing, Transatlantic Storytelling is also available to over one million Comcast Xfinity subscribers across the state of Indiana via its Video On Demand (VOD) function. To find the program, access the VOD function, search local programming and then Ball State.

Ball State Sports Link, in partnership with Cardiff Met Sport Broadcast, presents its feature-length documentary, Transatlantic Storytelling 2020, after a 12-day immersive and cultural experience in Wales. 

“We’re excited for the release,” said Zach Roy, a Ball State student who is the film’s executive producer and director. “It’s certainly been a challenge to put this together after coming home to a global pandemic. Thankfully, our team has been able to virtually come together, edit remotely and craft something we are all proud of. 

“Traveling to Wales to create this documentary was an experience and a story in itself. The many relationships we built will last a lifetime. The whole project is something I will never forget.”
