Indiegogo Campaign

We love a collaboration project! Recently we had the opportunity to partner with Hive Creative Group to create a video for their client, Sojourner Glamping in Greene. Sojourner Glamping is a luxury glamping retreat with land under contract just on the other side of Shenandoah National Park in Stanardsville, Virginia. The video we created was for their Indiegogo campaign to help receive donations for this incredible experience, and it's now live at the link below! Thanks to Hive and Sojourner Glamping for trusting us to help them kick off their campaign.

of a shoot we did earlier this month with Shenandoah Valley Partnership! Using video has them growing from invisible to irresistible. This exclusive cooking show was for a very targeted audience of site-selectors looking to expand their business in the Shenandoah Valley. Woodstock Brewhouse was the perfect venue for Executive Director Jay Langston to make Beer Bread with his virtual guests.

Choosing to deliver the Shenandoah Valley's economic story via private events started during the COVID pandemic out of necessity. SVP saw the engagement with their audience increase, and the conversations afterward were deeper. Their originally temporary pivot, this style of video marketing, has become an essential aspect of building their sales process.

We’d like to introduce another Appeal pet…Leighla! 🐶🐱

She is an 8-year-old pit bull/boxer mix, adopted at 8 months old with only one eye. Leighla is a silly, sweet, spunky, and an attention-loving gal. She’s very smart and knows how to sit, wait, lay down, crawl, shake with both front paws, and stay in her spot until her meal is ready. She can also gently take treats out of her dad’s mouth! 😅

Leighla loves:

🦴 walks
🦴 playing tug
🦴 when her mama comes home
🦴 laying on the deck in the sun and baking like a potato 🥔

❤️Most of all, she loves snuggles with her people. ❤️
