Canal9 is the cantonal television station for Valais and a well-established fixture in the Swiss audiovisual landscape. To mark its 40th anniversary, Animai designed a graphic identity and opening sequence, which were broadcast on-air and featured throughout the anniversary year's events.
The challenge: to mark the channel's 40th anniversary with a bold, visual statement through a short opening sequence that captures the evolution of Canal9 while remaining suitable for both broadcast and event use.
We delved into the channel's archives to incorporate iconic footage from these past four decades. To balance the retro feel of the archives and add a fresh touch, we paired them with modern, dynamic illustrations a blend that reflects both Canal9's heritage and its forward-looking vision.
The result is an anniversary branding package that pays tribute to the channel's 40 years while asserting its current identity, featured both on-air and at special events.
