Back. To the future?
From Charlotte
It’s been less than two months since I came back to Creative & Commercial after maternity leave, and pretty much the first time I’ve been able to take stock of how it’s going. I haven’t stepped into our office for over a year – and whilst i don’t miss the physical premises, I certainly miss the opportunities for creativity and collaboration which come from in-person interaction.
Nonetheless our amazing team has harnessed new tech and 2020-friendly ways of working in order to keep sharing ideas, developing skills and innovating for our clients.
Tribute to Rabbi Sacks
It was a huge honour and privilege for Creative & Commercial to be asked to produce the broadcast that went out on 6th December 2020, to mark the completion of the ‘shloshim’* for Rabbi Lord Sacks. We were able to incorporate tributes from more than 50 individuals, from across the world. And, in 3 days, the programme has had tens of thousands of views
*Shloshim is the intense 30-day period of mourning that is observed after a bereavement according to the Jewish tradition.

#LetThereBeLight
We are honoured to have worked with March of the Living UK to deliver the #LetThereBeLight campaign onto the walls of Coventry Cathedral.

To survive this crisis, charities need a brand-new approach
From Barry Brands strive to make themselves relevant, but what do you do when there is only one event in the news cycle — and that event is a killer pandemic? At the start of the recession that followed the 2008 financial crisis, McKinsey, one of the world’s leading management consultancy firms, analysed the behaviour of nearly 700 businesses during previous downturns. The findings were stark.
Approximately half of the companies that entered these downturns as leaders ended up lagging behind when the economy picked up. Read the full article on The Jewish Chronicle website.
Get animated with C&C
We like to tell stories.
Stories of achievement and success. Of need and generosity. Of hope and happiness. Of what has happened and what happens next. These stories take on different forms – online, in print, in film and in person. And no two stories are ever the same.
Right now everyone’s got a story to tell. And we want to help you tell it.
To all those who should be hearing them – whether they know it or not.Of course, we can’t send round a film crew right now. But that doesn’t make us any less committed to telling your story. In fact, it’s got us even more animated…
We’ve been using animation as a tool for storytelling for a while now, with some pretty impressive results. Not just creating the content, but deploying it in the right place at the right time. Combining all our strategic, creative and media expertise with eye-catching and engaging effect.
If you’re wondering how to tell your story right now, please be in touch.
We’ll work out the best way to do it, together. Creatively and, of course, commercially.
