BenchMark REport Launch-Mexico City
Elucidate created the ProDesarrollo animated brand film for the annual Benchmark Report Launch in Mexico City, where it was screened before an audience of microfinance leaders, credit institutions, and government representatives gathered to review the state of financial inclusion across Mexico.
First Citizens Innovation Banking-SF Tech Week
First Citizens Innovation Banking commissioned Elucidate to create an animated introduction to Nexus, its founder-investor matching platform originally developed under Silicon Valley Bank. The video was showcased during SF Tech Week in the LinkedIn lobby launching their rebrand.
“Elucidate delivered on a high-quality video animation; the process was collaborative and thoughtful from start to finish. The team had a sharp understanding of our business needs, strategic vision and was proactive in helping us navigate each step. After a single kickoff call, the Team delivered a well-crafted script that captured the objectives exactly and took the guesswork out of creative production. The new animated video content was launched quickly to market, resonating strongly and influenced clients to take action on our platform”
Alyson Daniel
Senior Manager, Commercial Bank Marketing, First Citizens Innovation Banking We don't start from a script. We start from what you need your audience to understand.You Don't Need a Finished Concept. Just Tell Us What You Want to Achieve, and We'll Create the Story Together.
We can start from a simple desired outcome, even a loose, uncertain one, and work outward from there: finding the story, building the narrative structure, developing the visual language, and creating something that resonates with you, your brand and your customers. Let us help you find your voice and visualize your message.
From: "We want an abstract characterization of our new positioning of putting our founders forward. POV without character creation.”
To: A point-of-view approach built entirely from abstract geometry and motion, each party given its own visual system, weight, and movement, so the relationships between them could be shown structurally rather than told through characters or narration. The viewer understands who each party is by how they move and how they connect, not by being introduced to them.
From: "We're trying to give added value to our customers. Can you make a video about our platform that matches founders and investors?"
To: A story told from two distinct perspectives truly speaking to the customer journey with that used as a metaphor. We highlighted each disparate journey that culminates in meeting at the platform of connection.
From: "Create a video in a circus theme outlining how we care about regulations in the micro financing sector and the differentiators."
To: An original character-led world, a circus built from illustration, where the rules of the ring became a metaphor for regulatory integrity, and ProDesarrollo's differentiators were carried through the story of a single character navigating that world. Their regulatory framework is color-coded, so we built that system directly into the visual language of the film, each color doing structural work in the story, not just decorating it.
