Love Books

February 2025 - Present

I approached Love Books to film their popular book launches.

The goal was to not only record the launches but create a dedicated YouTube channel and promote the videos and drive new online sales via short clips on their Instagram.

Personal reflections on the project

Key Takeaways

  • This was my first video client in a while, and I had forgotten how many variables there are to consider when filming in-person. I quickly learnt the value of checklists and was not shy to invest in better gear that would make post-production simpler and the final product better.

  • While the first few published videos weren't great, I absolutely value just getting started and working iteratively. It is really valuable to be able to learn on the job and from mistakes. 

  • The first reel I shared went somewhat viral (80k+ views in the first 28 days - 310k 6 months later). Beyond virality, the reels have become a mainstay of Love Books identity and given them a distinct product offering that appeals to publishers.
