“Diversity is being invited to the party. Inclusion is dancing to the music.”
It’s not just about showing up; it’s about being heard.
At Purple Door, storytelling has real power. And as content creators, we’ve got a responsibility, not just to tell stories, but to make sure those stories reflect the world around us. That means being intentional about how we talk about race, religion, disability, gender identity, class, and everything in between.
We work hard to weave diversity and inclusion into everything we do. From our team and collaborators to the stories we tell and the platforms we use to share them. Because when different voices come together, we get richer stories, more meaningful content, and ultimately, better experiences for everyone.
Whether you’re looking to make a film about diversity and inclusion, or you simply want to make sure your content represents people fairly and honestly, it’s important to work with a video production team that gets it.
At the end of the day, a film is like holding a mirror up to your brand or organisation. It shows the world who you are, what you value, and the steps you’re taking to be more inclusive.
Things to keep in mind when creating inclusive content:
- Talk to people early on. Don’t guess. Consult with those who have lived experience and the right knowledge to help shape the story properly.
- Language matters. Be mindful of words and phrases that may carry unconscious bias.
- Representation on screen is huge. If people can’t see themselves in your content, you’ve failed. Make sure your cast reflects the real world.
- Got a cool initiative going on? Whether it’s outreach work, internal training, or community events, shine a light on it.
- Make your content accessible. Captions and subtitles are a simple but powerful way to be more inclusive.
