Bank on Brooklyn for Barclays

Bank on Brooklyn for Barclays

Barclays celebrates 60 years of the Nets by showing that Brooklyn is rock solid and really loud

Two things that go together better than peanut butter and jelly? A British bank and a Brooklyn-based basketball team.

In Brooklyn, Barclays Center is the coolest arena in the borough, a gem of a spot that also happens to be the home of the Brooklyn Nets, who just hit 60 seasons as New York’s other basketball team. To celebrate that milestone, Barclays wanted a campaign that highlighted Brooklyn’s energy, culture, grit, and individuality.

Enter Bank on Brooklyn, a campaign built around a :30s film that shows the hype and electricity that the Nets bring to each and every game. Supporting this was a bold motion design system throughout digital arena placements, with Barclays signature blue flight path tying everything together.
