  • France 4 – Global Redesign

    Gédéon has fully redesigned France 4 as the young and connected channel of the French public TV group. Our work has turned France 4 into a real cross-media and digital platform.

    Audience contribution is at the heart of the brand. No matter if smart or silly, viewer tweets are used as the lead-in for promos. They create a special bond between the young audience and the network. Simplicity is also key. We use basic loops and gifs as a link to the web culture.

    In order to play and really communicate with the viewers, one of the key ideas was to develop a specific tool for them to design ad breaks. Gédéon created, designed and produced this brand new “mashup” app. We built the ergonomy and produced the different templates of the app, and we created a tutorial released on air and online.
