Today we celebrate Mike Tighe and Lindsey Lubkey for their work, care, and passion for this project: "We've Got This: Surviving Suicide Loss."
The confidence of the women who shared their stories, their pain, their truth and their joy is inspiring. It's also true strength to bravely talk about this subject.
The first 4 episodes are out now on Telus Optik TV and online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG9ak1qPjfA
Synopsis
A recent public awareness initiative dedicated to suicide prevention stated '11 Edmontonains attempt or die by suicide per day.' (11ofus.ca) And studies have shown that for each death by suicide, at least 7 to 10 survivors are significantly impacted by the loss. Those left behind after these sudden tragedies often face intense & complicated grief, lasting trauma, and even stigma from friends, family and/or our communities. Yet despite the need, social & psychological support is often limited after a suicide loss, leaving survivors stumbling in the dark on the path to healing. And yet, healing must happen. This series will blend survivor stories with expert perspectives & advice for those on this journey.
Watch, learn, and share.

There are plenty of misconceptions about video production...
With video becoming incredibly important in marketing yourself and your brand, you should be aware that what you've been told may not always be true ❌
Take it from us, videographers and video producers who have been in the industry for many years!
These are 3 myths about video production that just aren't true 😉

A Circle of Angels began when Kristen Edmiston and Beverely Hasinoff's father was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
Throughout his journey with a terminal illness, Dave demonstrated courage and grace, asking his daughters to help him share a gift with those who supported him along the way.
From there, little crystal angels were made and it soon blossomed into a pay-it-forward project with proceeds being donated to charity.
We had the privilege to work with Kristen and Beverley to share the touching story of A Circle of Angels with the rest of the community. ❤️
This year's 2022 Special Edition Christmas Angel is available now for purchase! Proceeds will be donated to the three charities: The Alberta Cancer Foundation, The Lupus Society of Alberta, and The Angels Anonymous Connection.

What do you do when your video doesn't have anyone speaking?
You add some music!!
When browsing for music, you need to understand the different licenses there are to protect yourself and your work. There are three basic types of licenses: Public Domain, Royalty Free, and Creative Commons.
Pay close attention to each license and what is included in them! They are all different and you don't want to mistake one for the other.
If you've used any of these websites to find music, drop a 🎵 in the comments!

Telling your story relies on more than just what is written on a piece of paper or what is being said...
Capturing the perfect moments also depends on the location!
The visual quality of the location should be taken into consideration as the FEELING someone gets from the scene can distract or resonate with those watching.
Where do you like to shoot your content??
