media co-op

Our CEO said “I’ve been here 20 years and I’ve seen a few attempts to sum up what we do, and they’ve all failed. This is the first  time I’ve ever seen it so well put together.”  We’ve worked with people before who have just followed our brief word by word, but media co-op didn’t do that: they challenged us, honestly and transparently. We so appreciated media co-op’s creativity, energy and collaborative approach.

I’d absolutely definitely recommend media co-op as a great organisation to work with. They weren’t just there to do a job – they have real passion and commitment. The film really captures people’s stories, hits all the points. It captures the essence of us.

We came to media co-op in the first place because they’re professionals with high standards, and because we share the same values: media co-op “got it”.  The film manages to capture the right emotions: both moving and joyful.  Excellent value for money. I’d certainly recommend them.

The process with media co-op has just been brilliant. They spent hours helping us tease out the key messages – they were incredibly patient. The end result far surpassed our expectations and hopes. We got much more political interest and impact than we usually get, and the film has longevity. That’s testament to media co-op. It has been an absolute joy and pleasure to work with them, and we’ve had so much fun.

“We found it very easy to work with media co-op and ended up with exactly the product we wanted in the timescale we needed. media co-op demonstrated a real understanding of our clients and had an emphasis on the end user, which fitted very well with our way of working.”

Our brand development process started with a blank sheet of paper. Media co-op and was really key in helping us consolidate THRE as not only a brand identity but overall as a project and team. They asked the right questions to get us to a point of shared understanding. Now, our unified brand identity works so well across all the platforms. It’s having impact.

I sincerely hope we manage to work with media co-op again! The team managed to put all the key messages from a 20-page article into a 3-minute animation.  Communication was really good and clear – it felt like media co-op took away the burden of coordination and that was really nice. Overall, I’d sum up the experience as well organised, collaborative, fun, and great quality.

Equally Safe at School

The media co-op staff worked so well with the young people – that was a real strength! The young people definitely enjoyed themselves, and developed lots of skills around technology and communication, and had a good time. Anything that gives them an opportunity to have their voice heard is really important. And the animations are great.

We gave media co-op the brief, then they did the magic. It was worth every penny, and probably double! The animation is beautiful, and it’s being shared thousands of times.  All of the co-producers found it empowering, without exception; they say “it’s definitely my story.”

Little Hearts Matter

The films and infographics are brilliant. Other researchers at my Uni feel envious! They’re fun, engaging, high quality. When I look at them, I think about the process, and all the contributions from our co-producers with learning disabilities. They felt included, listened to, safe to speak freely, and fully part of the process. They enjoyed it when the creative team said “here’s what you told us, and here’s what we’ve done with it.”

“It highlighted to me that with media co-op, we have a meeting of minds, we agree on human rights, equality and diversity. I don’t have to explain these things to media co-op and that’s one of their huge strengths.”
