The Challenge

Small Business BC wanted to help small businesses see why accessibility matters in the workplace. The series had to cover several topics clearly. The visuals also had to work for people with visual challenges.

02

Our Solution

To match the writing, we used abstract graphics and animation instead of characters. Lines, shapes, photos and animated text carry ideas that are hard to illustrate. A minimal but vibrant palette kept the videos on brand.
