Our Services
Our documentation services heavily rely on our key quality of unique and human-centered storytelling. Distory goes beyond the how, why, where and who of basic narration. We dig deeper to understand the true value of our client’s project to the beneficiaries. We take time to go to the field and gather the most unique impact success stories. This helps clients truly understand how their projects is received by their host community, to know what works and what doesn’t work.
While observing strict guidelines and specific house styles, we package our documentation not just for internal communication. Through booklets and coffee table souvenir books, we make sure your project communicates to the donor community as well as the project beneficiaries.
In all documentation assignments, Distory interlaces from field trips with unique points of view from program owners to ensure ownership and generate a sense of pride within the commissioning organization.
Our history within the communication space has over the years opened us up to the internal communication processes of both local and international companies. This experience has taught us that the impact of external communication between a company and its external audience is only as good as its internal communication process.
In this way, Distory has also opened up internal channels of communication for companies through the creation and management of newsletters and blogs that will have staff communicate amongst themselves. The content of these newsletters is varied but geared towards giving a sneak peek of who employees are at work and outside work. Effective newsletters foster bonds between family members and are a key source of internal pride.
Distory respects the place of history in determining the future. It is impossible for any organization to talk about a future without referencing to its past. We believe that every organization has a story to tell… and we tell it in an honest, interesting and refreshing way that still maintains the tenets of journalism-accuracy, facts, communication.

Through film, print and web, we help organizations hold on to the past and make it relevant to the fast approaching future.
