YEG.Stories Video
A local creative entrepreneur, Brandon Mattice, shot this video of me and my booktruck and here it is! He is wildly inventive with shot design, vision of a snapshot of the very heart of my business - the whole time being a very gentle guide behind the camera.
It was an honour to be a part of this collaboration, and if you want to pursue something similar, look no further than YEG.Stories!
