Harnessing the vibrancy and rhythm of iconic 1930's Fleischer-era animation and using it to sell *checks notes* online brokerage, Bear Meets Eagle On Fire's latest spot is a defiant call-to-action.

With a spoken-word performance delivered by Baltimore-based contemporary poet and street lyricist, Black Chakra, The Takeover sees an exuberant character work his way through various scenarios, all brought to life by Ugly Americans and The Jellies creators Augenblick Studios in Brooklyn.

“The team at Stake came to us with a pretty clear idea of who they were and what they believed in," comments Micah Walker, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, "so we just helped them translate those foundations into an original idea and voice. 

“I’m pretty sure a call to arms, inspired by 1930’s animation, wasn’t what they were expecting, but hats off to them for buying all the way in and committing to making it right.
