CD Will Johnson and the motion team at Scholar merge inspiration from Risograph printing and oil paint textures in this film showcasing the features and benefits offered to small businesses by San Francisco-based fintech brand Mercury.<\/p>\n

Will Johnson: \u201cThis film revolves around Mercury\u2019s customer-first thinking, drawing inspiration from the world of athletics, where energy and precision define success. Whether you\u2019re taking a bold solo leap from the platform Mercury provides or powering forward with your crew, Mercury is always with you, propelling your business at every stage.

\u201cIt was essential to make the animation feel tactile, alive with the same energy Mercury brings to your business. We leaned into the quality of human-touched textures, ones that left you wondering if they were hand-painted frame by frame.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe drew inspiration from risograph printing for the characters and oil paint strokes for the environments. By blending these traditional textures with a clean, graphic style and seamless transitions, we created a look that feels both modern and timeless.\u201d
