Mario Paredes is an accomplished woodworker and designer with endless passion for his craft. He left his life in Spain behind in 2016 and moved to Canada, where he has worked tirelessly to build a community of makers and collaborators who support one another in creating beautiful and unique pieces. His dedication and talent have earned him numerous accolades, including being named the 2022 Industrial Designer of the Year by Western Living. It is clear that this is only the beginning of the many successes that will come Mario's way.

Over the course of 3 days, Liam Mullany and I teamed up to create this short film and stills library as a test shoot for a huge client project that was going to be carrying us across Canada to tell similar set of stories.
