Bank of Zambia
Old Banknotes Awareness.
An animated public awareness campaign using an everyday market conversation to explain the exchange of old banknotes.
Portfolio showcase. This video relates to the campaign’s 31 March 2026 deadline.
The project
The Bank of Zambia needed the public to understand how to exchange their old banknotes.
We built it around an everyday conversation at the market and produced it as a short animated film.
