Mercury is here to do more for your banking experience.
This brand film revolves around customer-first thinking, drawing inspiration from the world of athletics, where energy and precision define success. Whether you’re taking a bold solo leap from the platform Mercury provides or powering forward with your crew, Mercury is always with you, propelling your business at every stage.
It was essential to make the animation feel tactile, alive with the same energy Mercury brings to your business. We leaned into the quality of human-touched textures, ones that left you wondering if they were hand-painted frame by frame.
“We drew inspiration from risograph printing for the characters and oil paint strokes for the environments. By blending these traditional textures with a clean, graphic style and seamless transitions, we created a look that feels both modern and timeless.”
