Visual storytelling
Narratives of
Creative teams of Imagining Science developed a number of visual storytelling projects for the NOMIS Foundation to represent and communicate with stakeholders in their international science network about the foundation’s vision and key activities in supporting high-risk basic research. The visual essays were featured during, or in relation to the annual NOMIS Award ceremony events.
The projects are result of an experimental approach towards corporate storytelling. The basic idea of the foundation is conveyed through the use of associative narratives and iconographies about science and the work of the funded scientists. The audiovisual formats make use of authentic footage, photography, illustration and animation. The narratives are screened as stand-alone, or in combination with experimental live performances that form an immersive theatrical experience. Imagining Science has contributed to the development of a visual discourse complementary to the foundation’s other communication initiatives.
