An awards ceremony created by students,
for students.
And the audience showed up.

The project

When everything rides on the live.

La Cérémonie des Walid is an awards ceremony founded in 2022 within the BUT MMI programme in Laval. Named after Walid, the student union's mascot, it celebrates the students' most outstanding work: videos, websites, communication campaigns, portfolios. Year after year, it has become the showcase of the Laval IUT (University Institute of Technology).

For this 4th edition, the challenge was clear: open the event to all four departments of the IUT — Multimedia, Computer Science, Business and Bioengineering — without losing what makes the Cérémonie what it is. Every detail was planned so that the live show on 27 January 2026 would unfold exactly as we had imagined it.

A third-year project, the Cérémonie des Walid brings together every skill gained during the BUT MMI, along with my commitment to student life.

Preparation

Coordinate
without improvising.

As head of production, I coordinated the whole technical crew of Le Studio. Assigning roles, running technical workshops, managing and renting equipment — everything had to be organised ahead of time so that, on the night, everything would go as planned. Live leaves no room for guesswork or improvisation.

The website

One website,
three jobs.

I designed and developed ceremoniedeswalid.fr on WordPress, with a polished design and GSAP animations to make students want to take part. Beyond the visuals, I wrote custom code for project submissions, voting by category and user account management. A complete tool, built around the experience from start to finish.
