We believe that innovation is not a throw away buzz word but something to invest in. Recently we have been working with some companies that are truly innovative. For Gripple it is their core value; Irwin Mitchell have won awards for being innovative, most recently for their corporate strategy; and Securitas are focusing more and more on innovation through technology to help their customers meet security needs.
This is what we have been doing for these three innovative companies from very different sectors……
Securitas
In the UK Securitas employs over 17,000 people and so it is really important to them to celebrate outstanding work within the Securitas community. Every year they hold a Community Awards ceremony where Securitas officers are awarded for their achievements in areas such as Vigilance, Core Values and Innovation.
Our task was to film the live event and make a short(ish) highlights film. This film is then used in many ways. Not only does it serve as a record of the event but is also an internal communications tool for staff and customers as well as being used to secure sponsorship for the following year’s event! Who knew one 6 minute video of a spectacular awards ceremony could be used in so many ways! You can see the highlights film on our Vimeo channel.
Gripple
Every ounce of Gripple is innovative! The idea may seem simple but it is the innovative culture that drives their success. Job descriptions don’t exist at Gripple, the factory floor is not a typical factory floor and the staff are so motivated that they all own a share of the company. It’s no wonder then that in November 2011 they won one of just a hundred coveted Ruban D’Honneur nominations in the Annual European Business Awards beating off competition from over 15,000 other businesses!
Where do we come in? Well as part of the awards procedure a film was produced. Gripple were keen to improve how it looked and by using motion graphics we managed to do this. By producing things like animated maps, spinning globes and images that reflect their company values we turned a simple video into a video that truly encapsulated the essence of Gripple.

Irwin Mitchell
You won’t find dull and boring internal communications at Irwin Mitchell. From looking at this picture you could never tell that we filmed this in one of their conference rooms.
That is the beauty of a green screen and a Canon XF305 camcorder – the perfect combination for a cost effective video shoot.
Could we help to transform your Internal Communications?
