HOW IT HAPPENED
Our partners at Worthwhile Training asked us to create a narrative film for a training package for South Western Railway’s staff about assisting disabled customers. We’ve worked with Nicole Vazquez and the wonderful team at Worthwhile for nearly a decade now, creating compelling narrative films that are used to educate on a range of topics from counter terrorism to disability awareness and beyond.
We created this - and our other projects together - with the assistance of the disabled service users of the railways to make sure that they felt well represented and that it was a fair reflection of their experiences of travel - both good and bad.
For this shoot we spent a day at Waterloo Station filming a scenario to demonstrate where treatment of disabled customers can go wrong to help staff to see areas to look out for.
WE COULDN’T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT…
