'Two Sides of the Story'
Carers UK & British Gas
Two Sides of the Story shines a light on the silent struggles of the UK's 6.5 million unpaid carers. The film, which kicked off our #ShareThatYouCare campaign, was originally only intended for social. But the client loved the work so much they also decided to run it in cinemas nationwide. It quickly became the most successful social campaign British Gas has ever run.
Directed by David Stoddart through Dark Energy.
creative team
"Jon and Bertie are a joy to work with on every level. They’re one of those unique teams that can do everything. They always come up with big engaging 360 ideas. They’re extremely easy to work with. They’re affable and charming. But they’re always focused on the work, deep thinkers who answer briefs with considered ideas. And always open to discussion on how to develop the work. On top of all this they’re lovely human beings and the kind of people you want to spend time with. They really are one of best teams I’ve ever worked with and I highly recommend them."
