Developing better ideas through collaboration
Creative partnership
We work closely with the people who know the subject best, combining their insight with our craft to develop work that feels real, relevant and worth engaging with.
We look for the situations people recognise, because change doesn’t happen through explanation alone. It happens when someone sees themselves in a moment and begins to ask, "What would I do?"
That might be an organisation introducing change and needing people to make sense of it. A team rethinking how they work together. Or a cultural or educational institution looking for ways to bring an idea, story or subject to life.
Those recognisable moments give the work its starting point. From there, we create films, workshops, learning programmes and practical tools that open up conversation and help people move forward.
Good ideas get better when the right people are in the room
Workshop:
ALIVE Learners
This hands-on workshop explores how to create a culture where learning is made visible and the process of discovery is valued as much as the final product.
Resource:
Still Learning
Still Learning is a book about remaining curious when it is easier to pretend we already know. It explores how we ask better questions, listen more carefully, make sense of different perspectives and stay open to revising what we think.
Resource:
Rebel Learner
Rebel Learner is a collection of free resources for people who believe the conscious act of learning is part of what makes us human - and worth fighting for. They are designed to help people have better conversations and remain open to changing their minds.
Case study:
Understanding patient experiences
A healthcare organisation wanted to help people understand the human impact of decisions made during cancer treatment. Using real testimony, we created a fictional patient story that followed one person through diagnosis, treatment and recovery.
The result was a narrated animation that made a complex experience personal and easier to discuss. Audiences were able to reflect on how communication, support and treatment decisions can change a patient’s experience.
Case study:
A more human welcome
An L&D team needed onboarding materials to welcome new starters into a diverse workplace. Instead of tired corporate imagery, we developed a tactile visual world of paper characters in workplace and everyday situations.
The work balanced playfulness and credibility, giving the learning materials a distinctive, memorable style that helped new starters connect with the organisation from day one.
Case study:
Inviting pupils into history
The National Archives wanted pupils to understand the Windrush story as more than a distant historical event. Using archive sources, we helped bring pupils closer to the people, choices and consequences behind it.
The result was an engaging and award-winning film that encouraged pupils to ask questions, recognise lived experience and discuss why this history still matters.
