    "subtitle": "A wasp flying round your plate, a cloud drifting right in front of the sun, a mosquito buzzing round your ears in the middle of the night\u2026 There are just some things in summer that instantly spoil the atmosphere. Little nuisances that disrupt the moment. In short: real vibe killers. ",

    "body": "<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Except that these days, the biggest vibe killer doesn&rsquo;t always come with wings, clouds or a buzzing sound. Sometimes it just comes down to one question. You&rsquo;re sitting on a terrace with a friend, enjoying the sun and a lovely cocktail, and having a cosy chat. Gradually, you&rsquo;re running out of things to say. Just like the cocktails. It&rsquo;s almost time to move on. But above all: it&rsquo;s almost time to ask that one question: &ldquo;Will you pay me back?&rdquo; And that can sometimes feel a bit awkward. </p><p style=\"text-align: justify\">Because sometimes it only takes one sentence to turn a summer moment on its head, as if a cloud had suddenly drifted over the table. Gone is the atmosphere. </p><p style=\"text-align: justify\">It&rsquo;s precisely this parallel that air, CZAR and Victor Vercammen illustrate in their new campaign film for Bancontact Pay. A 20-second film in which the request for a refund creates a chilly atmosphere&hellip; literally. Until Bancontact Pay steps in, dispels the clouds and lets the sun shine again. </p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/9b0325bf-1e62-419f-9ff2-93ca610afb6f/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"\"\n                id=\"image-9b0325bf-1e62-419f-9ff2-93ca610afb6f\"\n                data-id=\"9b0325bf-1e62-419f-9ff2-93ca610afb6f\"\n                data-original=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/9b0325bf-1e62-419f-9ff2-93ca610afb6f/-/inline/no/Capture+d%E2%80%99e%CC%81cran+2026-07-08+a%CC%80+10.14.51.png\"\n                data-mfp-src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/9b0325bf-1e62-419f-9ff2-93ca610afb6f/-/format/auto/\"\n                alt=\"Story image\"\n            />\n            <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover__caption\">\n                <svg class=\"icon icon-expand image-thumbnail-rollover__caption-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-expand\"></use>\n            </svg>            </div>\n        </div>\n\n        <figcaption class=\"release-content-image__caption\"></figcaption>\n    </figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Bancontact Pay is mobile, secure and easy. So there&rsquo;s not a cloud in the sky. That way, you can enjoy the summer without a care in the world. That&rsquo;s also the campaign&rsquo;s message: &ldquo;Summer Vibes Only with Bancontact Pay&rdquo;. This message also appears on B-bocks and posters in bars, restaurants and caf&eacute;s. In short: wherever people are enjoying the summer, spending money and, of course, paying each other back. </p><p style=\"text-align: justify\">So this summer too: keep the vibe going and get paid back with Bancontact Pay. </p><div id=\"video-eafb3807-d29b-470b-90a3-4dd1f988d7b4\" class=\"release-content-video release-content-video--embed release-content-video--contained\">\n    <div><div style=\"left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe data-iframely-url=\"https://iframely.net/api/iframe?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FA6yeBjeZvYc%3Fsi%3DAIDkFLOZnvek7qKy%23_cb1783498641&key=8fe6cdec03482ac31f27a6ae8ea2fb3f\" data-img style=\"top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;\" allowfullscreen scrolling=\"no\" allow=\"accelerometer *; clipboard-write *; encrypted-media *; gyroscope *; picture-in-picture *; web-share *;\"></iframe></div></div><script async src=\"https://iframely.net/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n</div><p style=\"text-align: justify\"><br>\u200b<u><strong>Credits</strong></u></p><p><strong>Client: </strong> Bancontact Company</p><p><strong>Contacts:</strong> Catherine Hijazin, Jonathan Romain, Nathalie Vandepeute</p><p><strong>Agency: </strong>Air</p><p><strong>Creative direction: </strong>Air Creative Council</p><p><strong>Creatives: </strong>Edouard Coune, Anouk Lemm, Marie Paris</p><p><strong>Strategic Director:</strong> Michelle Defooz \u200b \u200b </p><p><strong>Client Manager:</strong> Juliette Defoux</p><p><strong>Producer:</strong> B&eacute;reng&egrave;re Lurquin</p><p><strong>Production: </strong>Czar.be</p><p><strong>Director: </strong>Victor Vercammen</p><p><strong>Executive Producer: </strong>Eurydice Gysel</p><p><strong>Producer:</strong> Lander Engels</p><p><strong>Director of Photography: </strong>Siemen Sevo</p><p><strong>VR Director:</strong> Olav Verhoeven &ndash; Studio Regie</p><p><strong>Art Director: </strong>Alix Le Clercq</p><p><strong>Editor: </strong>Victor Vercammen</p><p>Colour<strong>Grading: </strong>Florian Keirse</p><p><strong>Online VFX: </strong>Victor Vercammen, Dries Derycke</p><p><strong>Online Graphics:</strong> Dries Derycke</p><p><strong>Post-production:</strong> Czar</p><p><strong>Post-production Producer: </strong>Bieke De Keersmaecker</p><p><strong>Music &amp; Sound Effects:</strong> Paulo Rietjens</p><p>&nbsp;</p>",
