The Royal College of Art asked me back to run a ‘Brand Masterclass’ (their choice of title not mine!) for businesses that are starting up as part of their incubator programme – Innovation RCA. It’s nearly 30 years since I went to the RCA where I studied Design Management. I managed to find my old…

Josie, our in-house videographer, has just produced this short film that introduces you to the team at rbl. She interviewed us all and then edited together this film to better explain what makes rbl tick. We are about  so much more than ‘Really Bossy Ladies” or “Really Brilliant Logos”! Josie has also been working on…

For Christmas this year, we’ve come up with something really special. We’re inviting you to swap out your paper crowns for your thinking hats (don’t worry, it won’t be for too long…). Anna, our Account Manager, loves doodling. So we put that to some good use, and asked her to draw us three Christmas pictures,…

There are so many things to think about when you want to build a brand. It’s so much more than just a logo.

  The chaos of Christmas has begun. Tired of the generic emails we receive so many of, we decided to do something a little different and create a festive film. So, we pondered, what’s something we all have in common at Christmas? Seeing the extended family we haven’t seen for months. Decorating the Christmas tree. Drinking…

One of our clients is Severn Trent, who provide water to 8 million people and over 500,000 businesses across the region. They came to us asking if we could make a series of short films with business customers based in the Severn Trent region. Looking for some different perspectives on how local companies, large and small, use…

rbl has been working with Lockton, the world’s largest independent insurance broker, for the past three years. We spent time this year talking to many of their people across the UK / Ireland about what ‘ Broking done differently ’ means to them. This short film acts as a simple introduction to the business. It clearly demonstrates that…
