Coocine

An identity and website for a film cooperative

Art direction, brand identity and web design2026

Coocine is a solidarity-economy cooperative based in Santa Elena, Medellín. It brings together film professionals and offers production, training and exhibition services, as well as residencies for developing films. I designed its identity and website to communicate this collective approach and make its services and member directory easy to access. I also photographed its members for the directory.

The Coocine logo

The brackets around the name refer to the camera frame.

Archivo · Open-source typeface

Cinema, together.

Archivo is an open-source typeface, consistent with the cooperative principle of shared resources. Its variants provide a single family for titles and body text.

The palette draws on the black of the screening room and the mustard yellow of subtitles. On the website, yellow highlights links and key actions.

Brand manual

The manual sets out typography, colour and composition guidelines so different members of the cooperative can create and adapt materials independently. It keeps the identity consistent without making one person responsible for every design.

Logo and typography

Archivo’s styles and the complementary palette allow each film or activity to have its own treatment while retaining the same wordmark.

Coocine es un proyecto social y solidario donde nos encontramos para trazar caminos colaborativos en la creación y difusión del cine.

Screening posters

I explored typographic compositions that give each poster its own character while retaining Coocine’s identity.

Original Foragers screening poster on sage green, with the film still, Sala 0, date, time and address.

Original Los Filósofos screening poster in black and yellow, with film still, Sala 0, date, time and free admission information.

Programme layouts

I prioritised what the audience needs to know: what is happening, when and how to take part. The hierarchy changes to suit a screening, a workshop or a residency call.

The website

The website brings together Coocine’s production services, residencies and shared resources. I organised the navigation to give each activity a clear entry point and a direct way to get in touch, alongside a directory of film professionals.

Member directory and portraits

Each profile brings together the member’s disciplines, experience and filmography, with direct access to their professional contact details. I photographed the portraits in black and white, using consistent framing to give the directory visual coherence while keeping the focus on each person.
