World Premiere Video: “A Day in the Life of Agile at Valpak”

Are you ready for the world premiere of our brand new Agile video?

It’s been three years since we released the original video on Valpak‘s Agile transformation and a lot has changed since then. To capture these changes and to demonstrate where we are on our Agile journey, we’ve released this new video.

Directed and co-written by Toby Morris, produced and co-written by yours truly and edited by Matthew Rivlin, the video uses an entertaining GoPro technique to capture a day in the life of each role on an Agile team at Valpak.

The video also boasts an impressive cast, listed in order of appearance:

Mike Hayes………………….The Insatiable Stakeholder
Kip Marler……………………Extra #1
John Dodd…………………..The Cool Product Owner
Terry Winslow……………The Steadfast ScrumMaster
Jennifer Zajac…………….The Tenacious Business Analyst
Toby Morris…………………The Amazing Developer
Ledel Lewis………………….The Meticulous Software Tester
Chris Cate…………………….The Active Executive

The video is our way of giving back to the community and showcasing our new workspaces and Agile culture. We also wanted to capture the essence of our Agile tour in a fun and entertaining way.
