With Father’s Day fast approaching, Synchrony Bank presents this short film, “The Lemonade Stand.” Told through the evolving bond between a dad and his daughter who sell homemade lemonade together over a decade, the film is a heartfelt story about the benefit of saving. It captures life’s small rituals, big transitions, and the quiet power of showing up for the ones we love.
The film was produced by Synchrony Bank in partnership with media and creative agency Crispin. The agency tapped writer-director Tristan Holmes for his kinetic and emotive storytelling, and cinematographer Sam Davis. The Album Leaf, known for its cinematic sound, produced an original score as soundtrack to the short film and accompanying commercial spots. Creative, including the short film and commercials, will air on Meta, YouTube, and CTV.
Crispin has been Synchrony Bank’s creative partner since 2024. The partnership with the Bank team has only expanded since, with Crispin becoming social agency of record for the larger Synchrony brand in January 2025, along with a number of projects with the Synchrony Enterprise team including a paid social campaign for CareCredit, Synchrony’s health and wellness credit card product, that launched in April.
