Mother’s Day Project

We are looking for mothers!

The Digital Storytellers are a Black-owned creative production company led by film director Tristan Barrocks and his wife Natanya Barrocks.  They seek to tell stories that centre around the human experience..

We’re currently casting  4 – to 6 mothers and mother figures (grandmothers, stepmothers, foster mothers, etc.) to participate in a special content piece for Mother’s Day.

IKEA Home Festival | Benny Bing

I was commissioned to create a film that showcases the variety of IKEA furniture used in Benny Bing’s creative studio.  This was shot and edited by myself.  The colour grade was done in DaVinci Resolve.

 

Every home may be different but to us, they all have one thing in common – they’re a place where we can live our best lives. We’ve asked six influential content creators to showcase how they’ve turned their homes into spaces for creativity, joy, comfort, and inspiration. Take a look for more reasons to love being at home.

 

We are a Toronto-based company that specializes in service-driven digital storytelling. Our goal is to help bring stories alive and connect people with the brands they love. We specialize in content marketing, video, infographics, photo editing and graphic design.
