Case study: a 193-portrait mosaic that turns into a logo, for VINCI Construction

For its ComDays, an internal event, VINCI Construction wanted a powerful on-screen moment that put its own people centre stage.

  • Client: VINCI Construction (client since 2017)
  • Deliverable: animated photo-mosaic sequence for the event screen
  • Volume: 193 employee portraits
  • Tools: PowerPoint, After Effects for the video version

The brief

Bring nearly 200 employee portraits together in a single image and reveal the VINCI logo from those faces, in a format ready to be played on the day of the event.

What I did

  • Photo preparation: cropping and colour-matching every portrait for a consistent result.
  • Scalable production method: a workflow designed from the start to absorb new photos, which made it possible to go from 109 to 193 portraits mid-project.
  • Animation: the portraits appear, then rearrange to reveal the logo, delivered both as a PowerPoint and as a video for the AV team.

The result

An opening sequence that puts employees at the heart of the message, delivered on time despite more than 80 extra photos added along the way.
