British American Tobacco


Corporate & Internal Storytelling

Creative Director · Haus of Park

British American Tobacco engaged us to elevate internal communications beyond functional updates, shaping narrative work that could support leadership alignment and cultural cohesion across the organization.

The Challenge


Internal communication operated within a large, highly regulated organization, where messages passed through multiple layers of leadership, functions, and markets. Each handoff introduced risk of dilution, misinterpretation, or loss of intent.

The Approach

I began by observing how strategy actually moved through the organization, rather than how it was presented at the top. From there, I developed narrative frameworks that aligned tone, pacing, and visual language. Using storytelling and motion design selectively to support understanding where abstraction or distance existed.

Each section contains bullet points explaining key ideas about storytelling and video production. The slide has a paragraph emphasizing the importance of engaging stories for audiences.

The Outcome


The work strengthened BAT’s internal narrative and clarified strategic priorities across the organization. The films became tools for alignment, culture-building, and leadership communication, proving that internal storytelling can remain clear, human, and credible at scale.
