EmailToday's video is a story from the people over at Great Big Story about a bank in Italy that accepts cheese as a form of collateral for a loan.
If you have been following the video of the day here on TheVJ.com . you'll notice this isn't our first video featured from Great Big Story. We really like their stuff! It is well produced and shot cleanly, but most importantly they consitently get great stories (no pun inteded) and tell them great as well. Each shot and line of narration sets up a question in the viewer's head that drives the story. You can learn just how they do this in our Storytelling Courses.
