Amanda Visell has created four wonderful posters, nominally for girls but we think the messages apply to everyone, male, female, young and old.
“Explore, Get Dirty, Dream Big, Be You” pretty much sums up our attitude at Totem, and that of many of our clients as well. Make today your day to jump in puddles, hatch some plans, set sail for distant shores (with or without a fish) and wave your flag.

This very clever use of light and body shape simply wouldn’t be possible if any one member of the troupe wasn’t intimately aware of exact where the others were at all times. The also must hold the vision for what they are trying to achieve in their heads and trust their choreographer as they have no way to see the outcome in real time.
The trust a winchman-paramedic must have in his pilot and winch operator is complete. A mistake by either is likely to be life threatening. The clear goal, saving life, means that everybody on board knows exactly what they are trying to achieve.
A spectacular display, made possible only by trust, practice and understanding of members strengths and weaknesses.
This video only really introduces the problem that the teamwork was to solve. Working shifts night and day for four days, NASA flight controllers successfully brought home three astronauts after an explosion damaged their craft and diminished their oxygen supply. Described as “the most glorious failure in history”.
Everybody in this team knows their roles and carries them out flawlessly. Communication is as simple as possible, raised arm means “I’m done”
Described as the greatest try of all time. Constant re-evaluation of the situation by all team members to put themselves in the right place at the right time.
Creative and clever output, reliant totally on each member playing their part. Impressive performance by high school pupils.
