Rather than positioning film culture as something reserved for insiders, critics or industry circles, the identity celebrates independent cinema as a shared experience that belongs to anyone willing to feel something. Normally a more insular environment, it is now open to all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/BFF_Tote_1x1_1080.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105415\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the center of the campaign is a reinterpretation of one of film culture\u2019s most recognizable visual symbols: the \u201cAdmit One\u201d ticket. Reimagined as \u201cAdmit All,\u201d the concept transforms a familiar phrase into a broader cultural statement about openness, accessibility and collective experience, balancing the line of being provocative in tone while also being warm and welcoming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The identity system extends across festival touchpoints including posters, social content, out-of-home, merchandise and even a limited time beer \u2013 built around a bold, colorful and flexible visual language inspired by the energy, quirkiness and openness of Brooklyn itself and its broader creative community. Drawing from the many forms tickets take across everyday city life, the system was designed to draw people in and live fluidly anywhere audiences encounter the festival.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the lines include:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admit All: To The Best Film You\u2019ve Ever Felt<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admit All: To Feel Your Heart In Your Throat<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admit All: To White Knuckle Every Jumpscare<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admit All: To Fall Truly, Hopelessly, Madly, In Love<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cErin, Javier, Alison, Rhiannon and the whole Otherway team, took a feeling I had about inclusion and the general idea of invitation\u00a0and turned it into something tangible dynamic and accessible not only for my team at BFF but for all of the filmmakers and attendees that wanted to share their passion for the the festival,\u201d said Brandon Harrison, Executive Director of Brooklyn Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe were really focused on the idea of invitation for this year\u2019s festival identity,\u201d said Erin McCarthy, Head of Design and Creative at Otherway. \u201cWe wanted to create something that felt open, emotional, and participatory. The \u2018Admit All\u2019 ticket became a representation of that sentiment, that film belongs to anyone willing to feel something. It evolved beyond a graphic device into a welcoming, colorful, and expressive world inspired by the energy, openness, and creative spirit we see and experience in Brooklyn every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new identity launches alongside this year\u2019s Brooklyn Film Festival programming which kicks off today, May 29th.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the second year of its partnership, Otherway, the award-winning design and creative studio, has unveiled its latest&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248054,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[96943,26869,2470,98,65954,100,99,4619,96944,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-248053","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-admit-all","tag-agency","tag-awards","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-film-festival","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-events","tag-new-design-and-platform","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248053","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=248053"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/248053\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/248054"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=248053"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=248053"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=248053"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
