Union Bank
Each year, Union Bank develops a Black History Month campaign to develop content that can be leveraged across multiple tactics that highlights Union Bank and its external outreach to diverse communities.
My idea was to focus the campaign around the concept of learning from the past to know where you’re going. Popularized by the Ghanian word, “Sankofa”, representing the need to reflect on the past to build a successful future, this concept is well regarded among African American and other ethnic communities in the global diaspora.
Our team used a mix of web design, ads and talent from various disciplines for video content to position Union Bank as the bank of choice for their multicultural audiences.
