We All Get By With A Little Help From Our Friends
We have a family friend Lexi who has built up a considerable following in the Health and Yoga blogging community. She is great at developing daily routines that help target people’s goals. When we spoke to her about our project, she was more than excited to help. She has a long love for herbal teas, and in particular the perfect chamomile blend. When we proved we could give her that and so much more, she wanted to do a product review and instructional video.
So on a rare sunny day for Vancouver in January, Lexi came over to make our first product review and brewing videos. She went into the kitchen and set up her Nikon camera which can shoot HD video. Then instructed me to move around a bunch of furniture. After going through my cupboards to find props, she calmly sat behind the table and told me to hit the record button. In one take she did the review of the product and then explained how to brews
her favourite herbal tea.
At this point she calmly turned to me and said, “See, that’s how it’s done. Your turn.” Awkward, but reward only comes for the brave, so with total confidence I sat behind the table. And she said “record” and then I saw the red blinking light. Not so confident anymore. If you want to see 7 minutes of funny awkward video http://bit.ly/OF4q8X. I’m pretty sure the only like I have is from my Mom on Facebook.
We would like to thank Lexi for her review and her help that day. It broke the ice for me and has since gotten me comfortable in front of the camera. We hope you enjoy her video.
