Objective:

What We Did:
We worked alongside The Ambulance Staff Charity (TASC) to produce ‘Don’t Turn Your Back’, a powerful, emotionally resonant campaign video designed to raise awareness and encourage eligible individuals to seek support. Shot in a single day, the film blends real-life authenticity with cinematic storytelling to highlight the vital work TASC does for ambulance staff across the UK.
Filmed on location with access to an ambulance and a real emergency call centre, the production featured a mix of professional actors and real paramedics. This approach ensured the message was grounded in reality while remaining accessible and emotionally compelling. We also captured interviews with senior TASC staff for use in a longer-form version of the film, expanding the campaign’s reach and depth.
