T-Rex Video Campaign Reiterates Best Practices

Amidst the ever-changing COVID-19 climate, the Montana Business Assistance Connection (MBAC) has taken a creative approach to address continued best practices. In our first video, we introduced Rex & Friends (Helena-based actors dressed in inflatable T-Rex costumes), who show us ways to continue best practices at grocery stores.

Filmed at Van’s Thriftway in Helena, Montana, the video takes a creative, lighthearted approach to a not-so-lighthearted situation. MBAC executive director Brian Obert shared, “We wanted to produce a video that would bring some humor to safety protocols aimed at reducing the transmission of this virus, not because the situation isn’t serious, but because this is a tense time and people are scared. Laughter is great medicine and, more than ever, we need to remember that our community, and the people in it, matter most.”
