Telesign

Intro

The world’s most trusted brands rely on Telesign to secure onboarding, maintain account integrity, prevent fraud, and streamline customer engagement. We recently partnered with the Telesign brand team and some of our favorite photography and videography teams to build out their new brand photography and video library that tells their story as the source of Continuous Trust™.

Brand campaign

In 2022, Telesign relaunched their brand. Their goal? To create a whole new category for their business that promotes their position as a leader in the digital security space. They adopted the concept of Continuous Trust—which we developed into the “we + you” campaign that tells the story of the meaning behind their new logo and the connection between Telesign and their customer.

Brand photography & video

As part of their brand refresh, Telesign wanted to create vignettes that help explain their products and services. We identified the image style, photography attributes, storyline for each vertical, locations and sets, scene concepts, and models for each set of shots. And for the week-long shoot itself, we staffed, styled, and shot all images—giving them a large library of still images and video to choose from.

Brand guidelines

We worked with Telesign to align and update their visual expression and messaging foundation around Continuous Trust (its new category descriptor and campaign) with design and writing guidelines. With examples and recommendations across different verticals, asset types, and stages in the customer lifecycle, the guidelines were designed to provide inspiration and guidance to Telesign’s creative teams on how to use the elements of their brand confidently and consistently.
