In close collaboration with the Office of the Mayor, Coelement embarked on developing an inspiring and powerful narrative that would deeply connect with the citizens of Winnipeg. We recognized the importance of crafting a story that not only showcased Mayor Bowman’s accomplishments but also painted a vivid picture of his vision for the future of the city.

To achieve this, we worked closely with Mayor Bowman to create a compelling spoken word segment, in which he passionately outlined his vision for Winnipeg’s future. With a resolute goal of growing the city to “1 million strong,” he articulated his commitment to fostering economic growth, promoting inclusivity, and enhancing the quality of life for all Winnipeggers.

To amplify the impact of the spoken word segment, we carefully selected footage that showcased the diversity and vibrancy of Winnipeg. 

By combining compelling visuals with Mayor Bowman’s heartfelt message, we aimed to evoke a sense of pride, unity, and shared aspirations among the citizens.
