ING Direct to the Rescue
ING Direct to the Rescue

All banks should be this invested in you.
Research shows that 86% of French people find it increasingly difficult to reach someone in client services, and with nearly half of those surveyed feeling like they were just numbers on a sheet, ING Direct tasked French agency Rosapark with a challenge. ING Direct wanted to communicate that the more digital we are, the more important it is to put human relationships at the heart of banking. “We chose to illustrate an emblematic moment in this relationship: the moment when a client calls the bank—and to do so in a surprising and spectacular manner. It’s a way to set them apart from competitors as well as to revive the brand’s advertising DNA, which is atypical, uninhibited and zealous,” explains Sacha Lacroix, Managing Director at Rosapark.
Each film in the new campaign features a phone conversation between an ING Direct advisor and a client in a dire situation. The call is related through an allegory: the client perceives his or her scenario as urgent and the right answer, at the right time, can save a life. It’s the perfect blend of an action and drama film packed into a cinematic 45 seconds. The films, directed by Birth’s Nalle Sjöblad, are a mix of live-action sequences and integrated 3D special effects designed to give them a cinematic feel. The music was specially composed by Laurent Perez Del Mar and recorded by an orchestra.
