There are many ways to tell your story
By placing storytelling at the centre of our approach, Small World Stories is able to convey often complex issues in a human way. We connect audiences to an issue on a personal level. Using a variety of mediums including film, digital media and podcasts, we offer an integrated suite of storytelling services that take stakeholders on a journey, inviting them to see the world differently.

For many of our clients, designing a strategy is where the magic begins. Starting with a thorough analysis of the brief and the goals of a particular project we create a roadmap to achieve your world changing vision. This is based on detailed insights generated from research, audience mapping, team workshops and stakeholder interviews. We pay close attention to how your organisation is positioned within the existing landscape of related initiatives. This allows us to clearly articulate what’s truly unique about what you do.

Audio-visual storytelling can be particularly persuasive, eliciting emotions that written text cannot. Our award winning films and audio content take the form of documentaries, podcasts, public service announcements and videos tailored for social media. We produce on-offs and series for national and international broadcasters, tapping into our extensive world-wide network of local filmmakers. Over the years our films have reached millions of television viewers, been screened at international film festivals and shared widely by our clients on their own communication platforms.
