Accountants boring? Plenty of clichés say so. But SBB had zero interest in staying inside that grey box. Together with Cartel Agency, they came to us with a clear challenge: create a video that shreds dusty stereotypes and builds brand awareness at the same time. Our mission? Make the difference between an average accountant and typical SBB so clear, you can’t unsee it.

Our approach

Cartel Agency introduced the creative hook: typical vs. typical SBB. From there, Medialife took full control of the wheel. Direction, production, lighting, set design and editing, we handled it all.

First, we leaned into the caricature: dull offices, monotone characters, zero energy. And then ‘bam’. We cranked up the volume. Dynamic camera moves, warm tones, fresh spaces and actors that spark with life. No explanations, just experience. No PowerPoints, only power vibes. Because our magic isn’t telling an idea, but it’s making you feel it.

Our impact

The video became the flagship of SBB’s Expect More campaign. By flipping the switch from boring to brilliant, SBB gained a brand image that sticks. The result? A serious boost in brand awareness. And for us, yet another reminder: give Medialife the creative wheel and you don’t get a video, you get an experience. Even in a world full of numbers, visuals win. Every. Single. Time.
