NerdWallet’s campaign, 'You Can Count on the Nerds,' brings the Count von Count character into an urban environment to navigate daily financial realities. The commercial features the puppet interacting with market data and grocery pricing, utilizing a live-action technique to bridge the gap between fictional character performance and modern finance.
Developed by Deutsch, the production features a clean aesthetic and a humorous narrative. The project saw collaboration across several disciplines, with production handled by Caviar LA, post-production and visual effects by Shape & Light and Apache, and sound design and music composition by Lime Studios and Jeremy Turner.
