About Africolor Festival Visuell Identitéit vum Festival

D'Africolor Festival ass déi visuell Identitéit, déi fir déi drëssegst Editioun vun engem Museksfestival zu Paräis geschaf gouf. D'Design baséiert op der Iddi vun der Resonanz, déi suggeréiert, datt de Festival iwwer Zäit a Grenzen ëmmer weider widderhëlt. E typografescht Spill schneit an widderhëlt d'Buschtawen vum Titel, fir e liewegen Rhythmus ze schafen. D'Identitéit ass kloer, direkt, faarweg a frälech. D'Plakat gëtt an zwou kontrastreicher Versiounen produzéiert, eng rout an eng gréng. Dat selwecht visuellt System gëtt op Broschüren, Flyer, Metro-Plakater, Bannieren, Stoffsäck a Publikatiounen op de sozialen Netzwierker applizéiert.

Production Technology
The first step of research is to make sketches on paper. Once I found the essential idea I continued the creative process on Adobe Illustrator, adapted to test different compositions. I cut the letters and duplicated them to create a vibrant rhythm. The different visuals of communication of the festival with formats as different as a poster, a kakemono or an Instagram publication were made via Illustrator and Indesign for the flyer and the brochure.
Inspiration
Africolor is celebrating its 30th anniversary this edition is therefore the year of reunion with the artists who punctuated the festival but also those of the contemporary Afro-beat electronic scene. The word that inspired this visual creation is "resonate" : the vibration of bodies souls and spirits over time, beyond borders... Africolor never stops echoing! Translated by a typographical game that makes the title vibrate, creates a joyful rhythm and suggests that the right waves are spreading.
Project Duration
The project started in march 2019 for its conception, and finished in october, and it was launched in Paris from november to december 2019, during the festival.
