How we made a grant application feel simple.

01 · The brief

Reach the families who could apply

The Trust supports families across the fashion and textile industry, from manufacturing to retail and laundry. It wanted a film that explained who can apply, what the grants cover and exactly what to send.

03 · The outcome

An application that feels doable

A 2 min 45 sec explainer that makes applying feel straightforward, and ends with a gentle nudge to start today. Shared across online, digital and social channels.

02 · Our approach

Warm portraits, clear steps

We animated the film on a textured, fabric-like background in the Trust’s colours, with warm family portraits and simple icons for every step: checking eligibility, the online application, the supporting documents and how grants are paid.
