An insightful narrative by John Taylor about the family's journey and the unique offerings of their business.
Use of an aerial drone to capture stunning footage of Cornhill on Tweed, highlighting the scenic location.
Professional 4K stabilized footage with high-quality audio.
Selection of three copyright-licensed audio tracks for the final promo video.
Delivery of a 2-minute promo video and several vertical reel videos for effective social media campaigns.
