Now Showing: Heritage Winnipeg

Heritage Winnipeg is proud to have released our brand-new promotional video! The beautiful short film captures the majesty of some of Winnipeg’s finest heritage buildings, while succinctly communicating what we do as an organization. Designed to be shared on social media platforms, we hope the video will introduce a new audience to the importance of our built heritage. We would like to thank Jacob Markham, the talented young filmmaker who brought our vision to life. Please take a few minutes to enjoy the engaging video!

MEET THE FILMMAKER
Jacob Markham is a 23 year old filmmaker from Winnipeg. He opened his production company, 47 Filmworks, in 2019 right after graduating. In its sixth year, the company now specializes in documentary and commercial projects. Jacob strives to work on projects that can make a positive impact for the world. Jacob was very excited about the opportunity of collaborating with Heritage Winnipeg on creating this video. He hopes that it inspires others to take pride in the amazing history of our city and support its preservation.
