In March 2024, the University of Lausanne launched a new entity with the aim of catalysing and supporting partnership research projects, a practice that already existed but lacking of structure and institutional recognition until now. The coordinator contacted me ahead of the launch and we began working together by producing a video that was shown at the launch event. During the same conference, I captured the various speeches in graphic recording format and continued my synthesis by reading the post-its of the participants to complete the fresco afterwards. To illustrate the website, which went online at the same time, I extracted drawings from previous projects and we added customised illustrations.
It's a great opportunity to work on 3 formats - video, graphic recording and illustrations - in a single project and to be involved in the process from the outset. This has enabled us to develop a complementarity and visual harmony between the various communication media that gives real satisfaction to the client and a great deal of fluidity in the management of the process.
In the center, a consolidated vision of all the solutions evoked, whatever the day or workshop that produced it, integrated into a landscape that allows us to project ourselves into a concrete and motivating vision that speaks to everyone. Above, a chronology to help understand the process. Around it, comic-book-style boxes depict the characters and their situations that served as a starting point for the reflection process. These comic-book-style boxes both present the current diagnosis with a touch of humor and give structure to the whole.
