An Independent Creative

Innovation Agency for the Intelligence Age

Mashariki needed a design partner who could visualize the emotion and energy of African cinema — modern yet rooted in heritage. The goal was to create a visual language that honored Africa’s diversity, while appealing to a global creative audience.

Tesnus Agency served as the festival’s creative design and branding partner, creating an artistic visual identity that resonates across print, digital, and event platforms.
