A Camera, a City, a Calling.

Happy Day Films was founded by Calgary-based filmmaker Saad Waseem, whose passion for storytelling began with a childhood camera and grew into a full-time career in motivational fitness and brand content.

Since 2022, Saad has built a following of over 400K and earned 200M+ views by consistently creating powerful, inspirational videos — leading collaborations with Nike, SportChek, Bauer, and YoungLA, and earning recognition from podcasters like Jay Shetty and Chris Williamson.

Today, with a talented team and 750M+ collective views, Happy Day Films helps artists, brands, and businesses grow through expert short-form content and creative direction.

Word on the Street / 003.5
Working with Saad has been a dream come true. He makes us feel incredibly comfortable getting in front of the camera, helps refine content ideas to perform, and the quality of his content deliverables are unmatched. We've racked up over 150k views across our channels, grown our following to thousands from humble beginnings, and seen a massive increase in organic leads from our social content. I couldn't recommend a better content partner — or a better human to work with.
