An uber-colourful paper-craft creation that illustrates a child’s experience of contacting Childline, from initial trepidation to relief and resolution.

With a lot of messaging to deliver to a young audience the NSPCC came to us because they needed an innovative approach, one that would surprise, delight and hold the attention of children of all ages.

‘Making Contact’ became a core component of the NSPCC’s School Service for several years and was seen by millions of children across the UK. It won Best Production in the Creativepool Annual and was reproduced in 13 additional languages for other European child helplines.

An intimate exploration of what it takes to train as a chef and why young people are drawn to life in a professional kitchen. Featuring profiles of Leanne, Jack and Lucca, who’ve all fallen foul of the conventional education system but found a passion for working with food.

The film, which went on to receive a Lovie for Best Editing, has been used to successfully promote Blue Marble training to prospective participants and funders.
