BREATHE
Brief
Film a portrait of artist Julie Solvstrom to launch Seek Discomfort's Essentials Reimagined apparel collection — in under two weeks from initial call to delivery.
We had one afternoon to shoot the entire video. Fortunately, Vancouver weather cooperated, and we captured cinematic moments that came together into a film that felt intimate and authentic.
The video resonated: 165K+ views on the hero post, 297K+ across the campaign.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better videographer to work with here at Seek Discomfort. We’re an account with 300k followers on Instagram and Richard made sure to thoroughly execute our vision for the video. He was also incredibly professional and communicative throughout the whole process. We definitely recommend him!”
— Ahmad, Marketing Manager @ Seek Discomfort
“Richard is the essence of talent and professionalism and I cannot recommend him enough. He shot an interview of myself to be used in a campaign run by the YouTube channel Yes Theory and he managed to capture my story and the project so beautifully. It was an absolute pleasure working with him. As someone not comfortable in front of a camera he made me feel completely at ease and relaxed throughout the whole shoot. Thanks so much Richard, I hope we get to work together again!”
— Julie, Talent
