Behind the Scenes: Filming for The Herald in Edinburgh
Go behind the scenes with Simmerdim as we film a cinematic campaign for The Herald’s expansion into Edinburgh. Shot across two days at iconic locations including the Scott Monument, Easter Road, and Portobello Beach, this production highlights our work as director, cinematographer and editor.
