Bute Community Forest
Bute Community Forest
Organisational Explainer for Organisation Awareness and Community Reputation Building
The Challenge
Bute Community Forest offers far more than woodland walks. The organisation manages a community owned forest that supports conservation, education, heritage, recreation, art and volunteering opportunities. The brief was to communicate the breadth of activity in a way that felt clear, engaging and accessible to both local residents and visitors.
Our Approach
Rather than relying on scripted narration, we built the film around the voices of the people who know the forest best.
Interviews with staff, volunteers and board members provided an authentic narrative, helping viewers understand not only what the organisation does, but why it matters.
Project Impact
The completed film provides Bute Community Forest with a versatile communications asset that can be used to promote the forest, engage stakeholders and support future fundraising activity. Since delivery, the film has been screened at public and fundraising events, helping introduce new audiences to the organisation and its work.
Deliverables
Highlighting historic sites and cultural significance.
Showing how the forest supports schools, families and visitors.
Showing how local people have shaped and protected the forest.
Capturing the environment that makes the forest unique.
Connecting audiences with the landscape through personal stories.
