Do you run a store in the Nanaimo area between Duncan and Qualicum Beach? If you do, I might put it in a video that I will send out to my 1.3 million followers. I'm doing a video this weekend to promote the 2nd annual Tod's Nanaimo Infusion, where we invite visitors to spend a weekend here. If you would like your store to be in this video, use your phone camera and take about 5 seconds of video inside your store with no talking. A silent wide shot panning from left to right. Bonus points if you manage to get a cat into it. Here are some examples of the camera movement and video length. Meow! You can be in it or not, just make sure that there's no talking and we can see as much of your store as possible. Once you've shot your video, remember only 5 seconds, go to store.nanaimoinfusion.ca to upload it. I can't promise to use every video, but I will say that the cat will increase your odds, and I am partial to orange cats. Use that information as you will. The deadline is the end of the day Friday, February 13th.
