The documentary Effected created by OEB Productions on today!
It will also be airing on CBC TV various times in 2023 starting this summer.
Shooting an independent documentary from scratch during a pandemic is a certain hell I wouldn’t wish upon anyone but working with crew I consider best friends was a priceless experience.

Our video won a national marketing award!!!!

The video we made for the town of Amherst was just recognized by the Economic Developers Association of Canada with a Marketing Canada Award for best marketing video in Canada.

The video, titled Better Together, was shot last winter by One Eyed Bear Productions of Halifax. It tells the tale of a matchmaker who brings two young neighbours – one works at a local egg production facility, the other works at a local bread plant – together over a meal of french toast, and suggest things are “better together.” It concluded by urging folks to attend French Toast Fest.

The video was viewed 1,000 times in the first 24 hours after it was posted on YouTube and was shared through the Town of Amherst page. By the end of the campaign, it had been viewed more than 3,000 times.
