We are proud to announce that Narrative has been named a finalist in Ragan & PR Daily’s 2025 Video, Visual & Virtual Awards, earning recognition in two categories: Financial Services & Banking Video and Visual Design Team of the Year.
These nominations reflect our commitment to transforming complex, high-stakes moments into compelling stories, supported by an award-winning team.
Our finalist submission in the Financial Services & Banking Video category focused on a flagship capabilities video created for Churchill Asset Management, a leading capital provider. For Churchill’s 2024 Investor Day Summit, our objective was to move beyond the "who" and the "why," and instead tackle the "what." We needed to craft a piece that effectively communicated the firm's value proposition and informed the audience about its sophisticated suite of capabilities.
We structured the piece around a creative "wheel" of capabilities, introduced by Churchill’s Vice Chairman. By combining scripted and unscripted dialogue from leaders of each business segment, we illustrated how these distinct workstreams collaborate. This evergreen content not only captivated the audience at the summit but also serves as a crucial tool on Churchill’s website, social media platforms, and high-level pitches with potential clients. Ultimately, the video successfully inspired confidence in Churchill’s "one-stop-shop" model, positioning the firm as a trusted partner capable of growing alongside its clients.
The Narrative Design Team was also named a finalist for Visual Design Team of the Year, a testament to the team’s unique ability to bring clarity, agility, and creative precision to every client engagement.
Unlike typical public affairs design teams, our designers embed directly with account teams, functioning as both creative and strategic partners. In the past year, our team produced over 8,000 assets for clients across industries, including healthcare, financial services, technology, energy, and more. Our designers do more than just create visuals; they help define problems, shape narratives, and elevate campaigns.
Whether it’s developing customized iconography for technical policy issues or publishing our quarterly Creative Brief to track industry trends, this team consistently sets a high standard for visual communication in the public affairs sector.
Being named finalists in these categories reflects the deep trust our clients place in us to tell their most important stories. Whether we are navigating the complexities of middle-market private equity or shaping federal policy through design, our goal remains to provide the strategic insight our clients need to succeed.
