media co-op

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.

The film is superb – brilliant – it feels like ‘us’. It captures the sense of ownership, it feelslike it belongs to the young people. 

A perfect partner for the written evaluation report: really brings it alive.It makes co-production seem not just achievable but something to be aspired to. Shows ordinary people, given the right environment, doing extraordinary things. I love it!

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.

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.

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.

I’m so proud of the animation. Ten out of ten. I present it at every meeting I go to. You see lots of NHS animation where figures are generic or dated. Our film stands out. 

It ended up on TV news and ten different newspaper and radio shows. Such good value for money.

media co-op understood brilliantly what I wanted to achieve, I can’t think of anything that could have been better. They came up with the idea of co-producing with children and parents – I learned such a lot.

The film exceeded all our expectations. One of our funders said it brought tears to her eyes.

The media co-op team are so passionate – fantastic from the start. They understood what we wanted to achieve better than we did !

Everyone who participated enjoyed being part of it.

Winning the Charity Film Award was icing on the cake.

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.”

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.

“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.”
