    Episode 26 - Co-Videos

    I like to call our collaboration (collab) videos, particularly done during the pandemic, as Co-Videos. The name fits! Here you have the background of my creations, why and how I've done it. Fantastic collaboration with Mestre Boca Rica, Catherine Bent, Jana Crivelli, Marina Fonseca and others and the result is in my YouTube channel.
