For the Canal+ documentary Les Guerriers de l’Ombre, I was commissioned to engineer a visual identity that mirrors the high-stakes environment of the French Secret Services. The challenge: translating the invisible - clandestine operations and protected identities - into a high-impact, 90-minute prime-time narrative.

The visual grammar is rooted in "Functional Minimalism." I distilled the aesthetic of classified dossiers into a stark, "film noir" typographic system. The core of the identity is built on a kinetic redaction engine.

In the title sequence, a column of agent pseudonyms is systematically blocked out. These resulting rectangles form the structural “bricks” of the stacked title lockup. This creates a direct semiotic link between the act of concealment and the brand itself.
