About this project.
To bring warmth and generosity to their holiday campaign, For the Love partnered with Heighten Creative to produce a festive recipe video featuring local celebrity chef Matthew Cooper of Conifer. Filmed in the heart of downtown Bentonville, the video showcased Chef Matt and assistant chef Brandi Barns as they prepared a seasonal dish — blending storytelling, flavor, and purpose in one inviting package.As the chefs cooked, they shared reflections on how food has the power to gather people, spark connection, and nourish more than just the body. The result was a visually rich and heartwarming piece that aligned beautifully with For the Love’s mission of using food to create community.
