Bringing Westminster Abbey’s Stories to Life

Background

Westminster Abbey commissioned us to create a series of six short films aimed at enhancing their schools engagement programme for Key Stage 3 students (ages 11–14). Our goal was to produce content that was not only educational and historically accurate but also engaging and accessible for young learners.

Our Approach

We began with collaborative creative workshops to align on objectives and themes. From there, we developed detailed storyboards and shooting scripts, ensuring each film would resonate with the target audience. Our team handled the full production process, including illustration, animation, and audio-visual production, to deliver a cohesive and compelling series. We delivered:

• Creative Workshops
• Storyboarding
• Shooting Scripts
• Illustration
• Animation
• AV Production

All films needed to showcase how people from different backgrounds through religion and history have a connection with the Abbey as a breathing record of our times. The films needed to be fun and exciting whilst being accurate and educational.

The resulting films are now part of Westminster Abbey’s educational resources, designed to showcase the Abbey’s rich history and its connection to diverse communities through religion and history.

The Abbey’s learning programme reaches thousands of school children annually, especially from across Greater London and the southeast of England.
