The Goals

First Bank partnered with Brasco to create  a set of videos with the following goals:

• To enhance First Bank and Trust Company’s brand awareness of their new expanding location in eastern NC.
• To effectively communicate and understand First Bank and Trust Company’s brand.
• To showcase First Bank in the Agribusiness Sector.

The tone of voice we wanted to capture was inspiration, trustworthiness, and experience while being driven by storytelling. First Bank is rooted in family-centered authenticity, embodying the brand characteristics of being expert advisors who possess extensive knowledge.

We created a 2-minute video, a 30-second video, and a set of testimonials videos for our client. Focusing on the loan officers and the farmers allowed the audience to see the experts they would work with, as well as the customer-focused, family-driven storytelling of the farmers.
