Ever seen an animation storyboard and thought: "Wait, is this it?” 😳

Don’t worry, that rough sketch is just the beginning! Storyboards map out the key moments in a film - they’re not final!

Peep our storyboard for @thre-equal.bsky.social vs the finished product 👇

Some of our favourite projects are the lo-fi ones - the ones with paper and pens and a whole lot of creativity ✏️

This #stopmotion animation was made with young carers from Argyll and Bute. They knew what they wanted to say - we're thrilled we were there to help them say it! 🌟

Breathe in, breathe out 😮‍💨

We made this guided meditation for RASASH (rasash.org.uk) back in 2022 - a great example of how animation can be used for more than just explainers and cartoons.

Unlike a lot of other creative agencies, our commitment to social good isn't just lip-service.

We're a not-for-profit workers' co-operative AND we only work with charities and public sector orgs. That means we're fair, democratic, and community-focused 🌟

The energy and excitement of @cooperativesuk.bsky.social Co-op Congress last week reminded us of this campaign video we made for West Midlands Ownership Hub year 👇

We cut four social media clips from the longer 4 minute film: we'll be sharing more in the coming weeks for #IYC2025! #BePartofIt

A lovely testimonial from @uofglasgowsldo.bsky.social‬ for #NationalLearningDisabilitiesWeek!

A few years ago we worked with SLDO to co-produce two animations and infographics with people with learning disabilities - proving that research can and should be accessible for everyone 🔬
June 20, 2025 at 9:02 AM
This #NationalLearningDisabilitiesWeek, we're shouting from the rooftops: people with learning disabilities deserve to be seen, heard, included and valued ❤️

We've had the pleasure of working with some amazing organisations - see some of the films below! 🧵 (1/4)

📣 "Scotland can lead the renaissance of the co-operative movement."

A joy to stand side-by-side with fellow co-ops for the ScotParliament reception to celebrate #ICY2025 a few weeks ago. Featuring rousing words from Rose Marley CEO @cooperativesuk.bsky.social‬ ✊ #CoopSolidarity #CoopFuture

After a great evening at the VHS Health Inequalities reception, we're back in Edinburgh today to share our work with the UK Government Co-Lab communications group!

We'll showed some of our films and answered questions about co-ops, co-production, and creative comms 🌟

Jenni's at @parliament.scot this evening for the Garden Lobby Reception with @vhscotland.bsky.social and the Cross-Party Group on Health Inequalities.

It's great to connect with other professionals who are as passionate about reducing the gap as we are 💪

It's been a while, but we're back 🌟

April was a really busy month for us, so we had to pause our regular social media posts for a bit. But now the dust has settled, we're excited to start sharing updates again. Hello to all our new followers too!

We worked with researchers to make an animation and an e-learning module for the project. They both highlight the major barriers teachers and parents face when tackling #GBV at schools — like the harmful mindset that it’s "just a joke."

🎥 Watch, share it, and sign up to the training!

Condensing an academic paper into a two-minute animation can be daunting - luckily, we love a challenge 💪

@thegcph.bsky.social animation on life expectancy is a prime example of why our process works - but don't just take our word for it 👇
