The video is a graphic animation with no audio that presents the visual identity and institutional message of Innosfera.
A red diamond expands until it fills the screen, revealing the name “Innosfera”.
Geometric shapes then appear and open up to sequentially display the following words:
- Resources
- Collaborations
- Training
- Enterprise
- Opportunities
The words scroll horizontally and then disappear.
The animation continues with geometric shapes rotating and expanding around the central red diamond, a recurring element of the visual identity.
The phrase then appears:
“Where knowledge becomes innovation”
The phrase appears in two stages (“Where knowledge” and then “becomes innovation”) until it is fully composed.
The video concludes with the Innosfera logo, in which the letter “o” is replaced by a red diamond. The central shape is temporarily replaced by other geometric shapes (e.g. a pentagon, a star).
The animation ends on a white background and restarts in a loop.
