The school's vocations :
A vocation as Preparatory workshop to provide students with the bases that will lead them in the right direction and the tools they need to take on the speciality of their choice. A vocation as school to steer students towards a career in visual communication.
Diversity, skill and passion are all part and parcel of a career in design and communication.
Diversity because the emergence of new technologies has caused a number of specialities like multimedia to join the ranks of traditional fields such as illustration, poster art and advertising.
Skill because with the fast-paced development of visual communication comes a higher demand for results, requiring greater precision and know-how.
Passion because that is what is required of these professions, in all their forms and at all times. Passion is what stimulates creativity and passion is what makes you commit yourself to this field like no other.

ECV's professional network
For over 20 years, ecv has developed a professional network of more than 1,000 agencies around the world, which has now grown even stronger by the presence of its graduates with these same agencies.

A Louis Harris* survey confirms the quality of ecv graduate integration to the workforce, thus validating the primary focus of our approach to teaching.

Strong economic competition in an increasingly international context has driven companies to use design (visual identity, packaging, etc.) as a key component in their strategic marketing. The major design agencies have become international, operating as a network of branches that span the globe.
ADVERTISING
The aspect of visual communication with the most exposure, advertising is an integral part of our daily lives. The implementation of major poster, press and television ad campaigns is designed by the inseparable "creative team", the artistic director and the copywriter.
The land of communication par excellence, France boasts two of the top ten agencies in the world. Major groups often have a number of banners and agencies around the world, enabling them to meet cu... [ Read All ]
