Sobeys
Sobeys grocery store was looking for a way to tie their 'Inspired' magazine to a much more interactive web presence - Through our Le Gourmet TV brand we created an online video cooking school that syndicates their recipe content to many websites. These sites target consumers who are looking for food and recipe content.
These videos coincide with the stories and recipes that are found in the quarterly Inspired magazine, and have found a real online audience.

King Cole Duck
Duck... It's regarded as a whole bunch of things that it isn't (fatty, hard to cook, 'ethnic'), and usually only makes an appearance on the Holiday table.
King Cole wants to change all that. We worked with them to create an initial 14 part cooking series that shows how easy it is to cook with duck - even on a weeknight. All of the recipe videos feature a companion video piece where we match the dish with wine.
These videos will be seen on the King Cole website / Youtube channel, as well as getting wide syndication through Le Gourmet TV and all of their partner websites. These were shot over a day in the heavyGFILMS Kitchen Studio.
