TEMPS D’IMAGES – logo and website
Project brief for a call for proposal
Objective
The objective of this call for proposal is to create a new logo and a new website, for the European festival and network TEMPS D’IMAGES.
Create a new logo and its graphic charter
As a flagship activity representing the network, the European festival is known by the same name across all ten of the host countries: “TEMPS D’IMAGES”.
Since each partner has his own visual and graphic identity for his own festival, the logo TEMPS D’IMAGES will be the only graphic identifying common for all. It will be a sort of common signature or label, marking the belonging to a same family.
It should evoke the ideas of culture, sharing, opening, discovering, crossover, Europe …
It will be used by all the European partners on every kind of documents: posters, advertising, programs, press files, etc.
It has therefore to be easy to use on every supports, and beside any kind of visual.
A graphic charter will define precisely the way to use this logo.
Create a new website
The new website www.tempsdimages.eu will replace the previous one www.tempsdimages.org.
The website is common to all the European partners and is intended for a European audience. It provides complete information about the partner festivals across Europe (program, schedule, venues, artists, etc.), as well as information about the network TEMPS D’IMAGES.
The new logo and its graphic charter will be a determining factor for the creation of the website graphic identity.
Many photos and videos of performances, artists and creations presented by the festivals TEMPS D’IMAGES can be provided to the respondents and be used to create the website graphic identity.
The new logo and website must be operational by October 2008.
Preamble
Created in 2002 by ARTE – the Cultural TV Channel – and La Ferme du Buisson – a national theater in Marne-la-Vallée, near Paris – TEMPS D’IMAGES is a festival which supports the growing performing arts and moving images scene.
Defined by a common theme, the meeting point between performing arts and the world of the moving image, TEMPS D’IMAGES started life as a interdisciplinary arts festival. Through the process of increasing its partnership activities and widening its geographical reach, TEMPS D’IMAGES grew into a network in 2005.
Project Brief – website
The objective is to create a new website, taking into consideration both the positive qualities and the defects of the previous one. In particular, the new website should be more clear, topical, readable and interactive.
The website is intended for a European audience and must provide all the information in two languages: French and English.
The organisation of information will stay overall the same as previously, but many points have to be improved.
We especially insist on the following points:
> The organisation of information
– Organizational structure of the website (menu)
– Consistency of the information and design (graphic identity, colours, links and headings for each partner).
– Interactivity: make a greater use of flash/video content to give a more representative of the content of the festival (the 2007 website was very “static”) ; surprise people, by original navigation (even if a classical one can be maintained for practical info).
> Homepage
– Readability of information : font, colours, layout
– Differentiation of the two languages (French and English)
– Value given to each European partner (name and logo of each body)
– Space allowed for the network’s current events and activities (news on the current festival, interviews of artists, etc.)
> Each partner’s page
– Consistency of all partner’s pages.
– Consistency of the headings of each partner : schedule / practical information / contacts / links on each partner website / press…)
– Emphasis on the introduction of each venue.
– Space for the communication documents of each partner (press file, program, videos).
– Specific page for all the partners of each country.
> TEMPS D’IMAGES Network
– A specific space for the European network has to be created : list of the artists presented in all the countries / list of the works and performances shown in the partner countries…
– The purpose of the new site will also to be a work-based tool for exchange between professionals and to be a space for artistic creation and exchange (linked to net art projects).
A new space for professionals has therefore to be created.
> Administration of the website “content management”
– Content Management : each country should be able to post its own content in reserved sections of the website.
– A superadministrator should have the rights to maintain the whole website, and be alerted anytime a country posts something.
– Content management tool should be easy to use, with wysiwyg editor and, if possible, should allow video posts.
What we expect for the respondents
A short introduction to show us its understanding of our context, and what kind of constraints they can anticipate for the website.
A vision of a new site architecture, and suggestions for a more creative and interactive approach of our communications.
Some creative drafts (moodboards? ) to allow us perceive the future website design.
A recommendation for the technical side of the website: content management tool, search engine optimization, statistics, etc.
A detailed financial offer highlighting the different tasks of the agency and the costs per persona.
A detailed project plan.
A few references on similar projects would be a bonus.
