She has a special interest in how video, when combined with community based social marketing approaches, can be used as a tool for change and social impact. Drawing on marketing communication, elements of documentary filmmaking, TV commercials and viral videos she has developed a SciCommercial format and model to improve sustainable management of whale watching and increase public awareness about responsible practices. This model can be applied to a variety of science communication management and marketing contexts relating to sustainability and human behaviour change. Wiebke also runs hands-on science communication workshops teaching \u2018pocket filmmaking\u2019, teaching camera techniques on phones and tablets, as well as video editing and storytelling.<\/p>\n<h3>Selected papers of interest<\/h3>\n<table width=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"671\">Higham, J., Cohen, S.A., Cavaliere, C., Reis, A. &amp; Finkler, W.\u00a0(2016).\u00a0Climate change, tourist air\u00a0travel and radical emissions reduction.\u00a0Journal of\u00a0Cleaner Production 111 (B): 336-347.<\/p>\n<p>Finkler, W.
