Studio and creative services
Can you design a new brochure, lay out 32-pages, print it and deliver it to Mumbai in less than a week?
Civil society and the United Nations family set a very high standard for creative and production suppliers. They have to work fast, know how to make corrections at the last minute. They have to produce documents in dozens of languages. They have to expect coordination after coordination. And they usually have to await payment patiently. In short, as one client asked us, we have to be able to turn out a full document, and deliver it half way around the world, in the time it used to take just to print it. As it turns out, after more than two decades of offering creative and production services to the public interest community, we have learned how to keep our customers happy; most of them anyway.
In all seriousness, the messaggio team really does try hard. We work late hours, weekends, with often stressed communications assistants. We work with clients a few kilometers away from our studios and with others on all continents, literally. We have managed to do so with a combination of experience, patience and technology. Experience has taught us how to recognise potential problems in advance and to plan for them. We are patient; we just ask that our clients be patient as well. Finally, there is technology. Our studio works via a helpdesk. This helpdesk is actually a sophisticated operational hub. It allows us to work accross timezones and to split the work among several staff. Basically, at any given moment, any staff member can access any project in progress.
The team has young and dynamic designers. It also has experienced art direction ensuring we stay relevant. We have state of the art equipment, keep our software current and keep the staff motivated. In short, if you are part of the public interest sector and need creative services, messaggio studios can deliver.
Our creative services include:
- Graphic design
- Layout
- Translation

Note that we do not offer corporate design except when it is considered in the public interest notably in the case of corporate foundations or corporate social responsibility projects. In short, we do not accept sales, marketing or promotional related work.
Design services
Great design depends on talent, resources, artistic license and knowledge. As you will discover, messaggio studios' management takes these seriously and addresses each one. It enables our artists and art directors to provide consistently strong creative output.
Video and broadcast
mondofragilis has a specialised television and video production team with television credits in over 140 countries.
Field and studio photography
The mondofragilis group is passionate about imagery. We realise its importance in messaging. Since the seventies, our photos have been used in published media and campaign materials.
Illustration
messaggio studios is privileged to have in-house illustrators with a portfolio in technical, industrial, artistic and even comics portfolio.
3D and special effects
Our 3D, special effects and animation expertise is actually quite broad. The issue we usually run into, is the cost.

Our first soundtrack dates back to 1980. Since then, the team has produced most of the music for all of our films, animations and television programmes.
