Easter, but apparently we needed to make it a bit more Easter.

    The “make it more” format gives this a simple rhythm: start with an idea, then keep pushing it. You understand the setup without needing a big explanation.

    I like a seasonal post with something to follow, rather than just a logo and a holiday greeting. Here, the escalation is the reason to keep watching.

A big investing idea, broken down into a short animation.

    This introduces the FIRE approach through animation. For me, the interesting creative problem is making a finance topic approachable without trying to squeeze an entire explainer into one reel.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    With this kind of content, I look for a clear way into the subject first. Someone should be able to follow the idea before they have to get their head around the terminology.

Sometimes the most useful thing to change is the view.

    The animation puts short-term market movements in a wider frame. That change of perspective gives an abstract topic something visual to work with.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    What I like here is that the movement carries the explanation. “Zoom out” is something you can show, rather than another line of finance copy asking people to think long term.

A little of Pasifika’s music, movement and atmosphere in a short-form social video.

    This short-form social video brings together performances and the atmosphere around Melbourne Pasifika Festival. There’s more to an event than what happens on stage, and I like seeing that come through.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    For me, an event edit should give someone who wasn’t there a feel for it. A short video can do that without trying to turn the whole day into a running order.

  3. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    The performances give this plenty to work with. It’s a different kind of storytelling from the scripted and animated pieces elsewhere in this feed.

An awkward breakup. A slightly less obvious way to talk about ETFs.

    The relationship sketch gives an ETF portfolio message a familiar setup. You can recognise the situation before you know where the finance connection is going.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    This is the sort of crossover I enjoy: taking a subject people don’t necessarily come to social media for and finding a format they already understand.

A fresh look for MoneyQuest, with a person there to introduce it.

    This announcement combines presenter footage with graphics showing the rebrand. It gives the new look an introduction, rather than leaving the visuals to explain the change on their own.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like having someone on screen for an announcement like this. The graphics show what’s changed, while the presenter gives people someone to listen to.

A short introduction to the sound of Guilty Sticks.

    A music promo has a different job from an explainer. I want to get a feel for the band first, without being given a long list of reasons to listen.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    This is a square-format piece for Guilty Sticks. Alongside the finance and event work, it shows another side of the content in this collection.

  3. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    Sound matters for this one. If you’ve been watching the feed muted, this is a good place to turn it on.

Not every piece of brand content lives on a screen.

    The branded tram is the subject here, filmed at street level. It puts Vanguard in a recognisable everyday setting rather than a studio or an animated scene.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like the connection between something you might pass on the street and something you see in your feed. The physical branding gives the reel a subject of its own.

Vanguard Australia logoVanguard Australia

Having a word with future me. There’s a bit to talk about.

Comments

    The future-self conversation turns a distant idea into an actual exchange. Two versions of one person give the sketch a structure that’s easy to follow.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I’m drawn to formats that make an abstract subject feel familiar. A conversation can give you that opening without starting with a definition or a list of facts.

A new financial year, a few ins and outs, and a reason to check in with yourself.

    The familiar “ins and outs” format gives this financial wellbeing carousel a simple organising idea. It’s something you can scan before deciding to read more closely.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    There are four slides here, including the original disclosure. I like a carousel where each swipe has a clear job, rather than breaking up a paragraph just to fill more slides.

Investing, in hindsight

Hindsight. Somehow always the most confident investor.

    This uses a meme to get at the feeling of looking back on an investing decision. The format makes room for recognition before explanation.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    A single image doesn’t need to carry the whole subject. I like letting a post make one point, particularly when the joke already gives people a way into it.

A different perspective
Vanguard Australia logoVanguard Australia

Same market, different time frames. A different way of seeing it.

    This infographic compares market movements across time frames. Putting the views together lets the comparison do more of the talking than a paragraph could.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    What interests me here is the framing. The time window is part of the story, not just a detail underneath the chart. That’s the bit I want people to notice.

What’s your MoneyQuest personality?

A little personality in the MoneyQuest feed.

    The personality format invites people to find themselves in the graphic. It gives them a way to respond that doesn’t require knowing much about the business first.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like content that leaves room for the audience. Rather than explaining every part of a service, this starts with a question someone can answer about themselves.

  3. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    It’s all contained in one static post. The idea needs to make sense at a glance, without a second slide or a video to finish the setup.

    The notebook-style pages make this feel like a check-in you can work through. Across five slides, there’s space for the questions as well as a little reassurance.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like the permission to start without knowing everything. That’s a more welcoming opening for a super conversation than assuming someone already has it all sorted.

    World Emoji Day gives this interview a specific prompt. It’s a small constraint, but it changes the kind of answer you expect from a finance conversation.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like a question that gives people room to bring their own personality. The shared format holds the piece together without needing everyone to sound the same.

    Amanda is the focus of this presenter-led MoneyQuest video. Having a person speak on camera gives the piece a different feel from the brand’s static graphics.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like seeing the people behind a business. A face and a voice can give you something to connect with that a logo or a written introduction doesn’t.

Vanguard Australia logoVanguard Australia

A personal story, with investing as part of the picture.

    This is an investor-story video. The person gives the subject a starting point, rather than opening with a product or a technical explanation.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like the difference between explaining investing and hearing someone talk about their experience of it. A personal story gives you a particular perspective, not a template for everyone.

Making room for an investing story on International Women’s Day.

    This piece puts an investing story at the centre of an International Women’s Day post. The occasion provides the context, but there’s a person’s experience to spend time with.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    The captions give viewers a way to follow along without sound. I like that the story is still accessible to someone watching on a train or quietly scrolling through their feed.

    The “wrong answers only” prompt takes a finance acronym and makes it a quick-fire interview. Knowing the proper definition isn’t a requirement for enjoying the setup.

  2. Antoine Bellavance

    Antoine Bellavance

    I like how a small change to the question changes the whole tone. Instead of testing people’s knowledge, there’s room for them to play with it.

    I’m already a photographer; it’s getting on the wall and developing my rope skills that brings a different challenge.
