We find the
human heartbeat
of the story.

Slate&Story is a hands-on creative team that brings strategy, vision, taste, and emotional intelligence under one roof. We help our clients understand the real story they’re trying to tell - the truth that sits behind the objective.

There are no layers, no handoffs and no outsourcing. The people shaping your story are the same people behind the camera, guiding the interview, designing the visual language and shaping the final cut. The result is work that feels honest, human and crafted with intention to achieve your goals.

We create clarity, connection and continuity - stories that purpose-driven organisations need to build trust and demonstrate real impact.

Our Method.

Many organisations don’t struggle with doing good work.

They struggle to show it clearly, credibly, and consistently.

At the heart of our philosophy is a straightforward and rigorous approach to working with stories.

We call it CURE™.

CURE™ reflects how meaningful stories are created, sustained and shared - particularly in organisations where impact, trust and long-term commitment matter.

Rather than forcing stories into a single output or moment, CURE™ allows them to be captured, followed, reshaped and expressed with care.

  • One story, captured two ways.

    We capture film and photography together to create a cohesive, flexible body of visual storytelling. This approach maximises time on site, respects the people involved, and produces a richer set of assets for reporting, engagement and long-term use.

    Ideal for:

    • CSR and ESG documentation

    • social impact programmes

    • employer culture and wellbeing

    • community and conservation work

    The result is a visual record that feels human, honest and considered - not staged or disposable.

  • Because some stories unfold.

    Many of the most meaningful stories can’t be captured in a single day. Seasonal Storytelling allows us to follow people, places and programmes over time - documenting progress, change and continuity.

    This approach is particularly powerful for:

    • ESG and sustainability initiatives

    • conservation and environmental stewardship

    • community and regeneration programmes

    • long-term partnerships

    Seasonal Storytelling creates depth, trust and a genuine sense of commitment.

  • Transform what you have into what you need.

    Organisations often sit on years of unused footage, photography and stories. Reframe turns existing material into clear, purposeful narrative assets - without the need for new filming.

    We carefully reshape archives into:

    • impact films

    • short-form story assets

    • reporting visuals

    • cohesive narrative libraries

    Sometimes the most effective storytelling isn’t about creating more - it’s about creating better.

  • The visual language behind your story.

    Impact stories are only as strong as the way they’re expressed. We design visual identities and storytelling systems that give clarity, consistency and credibility to your work.

    This might include:

    • visual storytelling frameworks

    • campaign or programme identities

    • design systems for film, photography and reporting

    • branded assets that support long-term use

    Our design work ensures your stories look as thoughtful as the work behind them.
