Storytelling
In documentary style we learn the real story of Dave trying to find a job with the mediation of the municipality and the employer. The format is a scripted documentary consisting of four consecutive parts. Scripted docmentary means that these four short films have been filmed as a documentary. This makes the story more dramatic, more realistic and powerful.
The story is told from three perspectives:
1. Dave
2. The municipality
3. The employer
Episodes

Branded Video Strategy & Content
Each episode focuses on a specific target group (job seekers, the municipality / municipalities and employers; see perspecives / episodes) in which people recognize themselves. From there, motivate these people to watch the other episodes in order to inform them about the process but also to create understanding for the other target groups. It contributes to a better reputation of each target group and the participants in particular. They tell the story to others.
