“We picked ONA because we saw a unique approach to storytelling. Design can often seem abstract, so telling human stories about its impact is a fine art.
The films they made for us have been beautifully crafted - each one unique yet building together to form a powerful collection of stories about design.
In our work with Network Rail, the films have revealed the creativity within that organisation through diverse case studies. These have been instrumental in our design training programme, inspiring Network Rail's people to become design champions.
Working with ONA has been a genuinely collaborative experience so that the films are a unique result of our briefing and their creative insight.
The makeup of ONA's team reflects our shared values of diversity and inclusion and their work carries these values through into the final products.”

“Cressida is one of those rare filmmakers who combines a deep understanding of craft with incredibly emotive storytelling. She has been an integral part of the ustwo team in a number of projects and is an empathic, well loved team member. She brings the best out of our interviews and testing sessions with people, by crafting thoughtful questions and strengthening a project’s narrative.”

Most high impact teams are too busy to give attention to storytelling while projects are in flight.
Retrofitting is more expensive, and lower value. Words and assets are often patched together after team members have moved on, or maybe the most convincing arguments for change slipped away.
If you’re proud of your team culture, or the moment that users saw ways in which their lives could be transformed, then it makes sense to be able to document and share those human stories… authentically.
