Our Role
Script development, film production, tone of voice (pro-bono)

Evolve produced a TV-ready commercial for United Way BC on a pro-bono basis — a quiet, single-image piece about child poverty in British Columbia.

01 — Challenge

Non-profit messaging often falls into one of two traps: emotional overload or statistical detachment. United Way needed something that landed quietly enough to be remembered.

02 — Approach

We wrote a script built around a single image — a child's drawing on a kitchen table — and shot it on the RED Epic camera to give the frame the weight and depth of cinema, not advertising. Sound design was kept minimal so the visual and the voiceover could do the work.

03 — Outcome

The spot aired in BC market television and has been used by the United Way BC team in donor presentations since.

For Too Many Kids, This Is A Reality

When launching a national campaign the United Way BC pro bono commercial was built around a single quiet image — a child's drawing on a kitchen table — letting craft and restraint carry the emotional weight of the message.
