Resources & Case Studies

Resources & Case Studies

The Field Guide has drawn extensively from impact case studies and we highly recommend you also get inspired and empowered. Stand on the shoulders of others! Of course we also recommend that you watch as many of the full films as possible so you can put together the creative potential with the impact strategy. We are also always looking to include great new examples so please email us your suggestions.
