Educational Modules
We worked with the Leddy Library, the Office of Open Learning, and the Department of History at the University of Windsor as course developers for a series educational modules.
These modules are a series of five videos that explore proper academic research methods. With this project, rather than adopting the green screen and talking head approach that was expected, we instead took it in a more cinematic style, opting for a creative visual style to engage the audience, rather than a repetitive corporate one.
Follow the flavours
As part of our work with Tourism Windsor Essex Pelee Island, we developed the Follow the Flavours: Multicultural Food Trail. Follow the Flavours is a self guided tour of a variety of restaurants across the Windsor Essex region.
Through this project, we visited over 30 restaurants - taking photos of their signature dishes and interviewing their owners and chefs so as to later write articles about each spot and their culture and history.
Eyes on art
As part of our work with Tourism Windsor Essex Pelee Island (TWEPI), we developed the Eyes on Art program. Eyes on Art is a self guided trail of all the incredible art pieces in Windsor Essex. Over the course of the 2024 summer, we catalogued and photographed over 400 pieces and created a variety of trails that visitors could follow in each municipality.
Convocation
As part of our work with the University of Windsor’s Office of Public Affairs & Communication, Sean was the lead camera operator for the broadcast of convocation ceremonies during the 2023-2024 academic year.
Working in tandem with a large broadcast team, we were responsible for recording the entirety of the convocation procession at over 20 ceremonies.
