One of my proudest moments as a Producer and with Director Anthony Garth for Citizen Pictures.

I coordinated a faux brewery tour with local breweries and created a fake tour company (complete with bus) to run it - branded "A Few Brews" by Amelie and CDOT. Watch to see what the tour participants learned - once we revealed what we were really up to.
