BNZ Continues to Help Kiwis Be Good With Money in Latest Brand Campaign via Colenso BBDO
Bank of New Zealand has launched a new brand campaign via Colenso BBDO, continuing its long-running theme of helping New Zealanders be good with money, with a story that will resonate with families all over New Zealand.
The campaign was shot by Exit Film's director Glendyn Ivin.
What Ella Wants runs as 60, 30 and 15 second spots on TV, online and in cinemas. It will also feature in branches and OOH throughout the country.
Says Briar Rowe, acting head of brand, BNZ: "BNZ is about helping New Zealanders be good with money and that message hasn't changed. This new chapter of the brand work shows the other side of that same story - the great things that can come from being good with money."
What Ella Wants is a story of a dad and daughter making their way through some everyday money decisions together. Seven-year-old Ella is learning that reaching a goal means making some sacrifices, while Dad is dealing with the challenge of saying "no" a few times. The takeaway - getting to your goal isn't always straight or easy, but it's worth it.

genuine performances - it's hard not to love their father daughter relationship."
