Théodora × La Gaîté Lyrique — Event Website
Short description
Website concept for “Boss Lady”, an exhibition and concert by French pop/rap artist Théodora at La Gaîté Lyrique, Paris.
Description
A one-page event website for a collaboration between La Gaîté Lyrique and Théodora. Her “Bad Boy Lovestory” universe moves from music video to physical space: an exhibition, a concert and free workshops.
The goal was to make the site feel like the artist: bold, glossy and confident. It still had to stay clear for visitors who come to find dates, prices and tickets.
What I did:
Art direction and layout: oversized grotesque headlines, serif artist quotes and monospace info labels
A scrolling “BOSS LADY” marquee, with a new colour mood for each section (pink, lavender, black and electric blue)
A “Change the background” toggle so visitors can switch the page’s atmosphere
Exhibition path presented room by room, with the free workshops alongside
Concert section with schedule, venue info, prices and a ticket call-to-action
Image gallery and an “Also at La Gaîté” programme section

A 45-second teaser announcing the collaboration between the artist Théodora and La Gaîté Lyrique in Paris.
About the collaborators
Théodora is a French singer-songwriter whose music mixes pop, rap, Afro and electronic sounds. She became one of the breakout voices of the new French scene with “Kongolese sous BBL” and her album Bad Boy Lovestory. Her bold, glamorous and playful image is as central to her work as the music.
La Gaîté Lyrique is a 19th-century theatre in the heart of Paris (3rd arrondissement), now a cultural venue for digital and contemporary cultures. It hosts concerts, exhibitions, talks and immersive experiences in its historic gilded halls.
The video
The teaser starts outside on the venue’s façade and follows the crowd through the doors into a night of music and style. It then moves quickly through each part of the event:
the “Gaîté Lyrique × Théodora” title card over the venue’s ornate gold ceilings
a packed concert under bright stage lights
a colourful exhibition built around Théodora’s world, with themes like image and independence
an immersive starry room with a crescent moon
a call to join the contest: “Mettez-y la voix !”
It ends on Théodora’s silhouette, backlit on stage, before the chrome-pink co-branded logo appears.
The edit is fast and rhythmic, with sharp cuts and flash transitions, so it works for social media and promotional screens.
My role: Video editing. I handled the pacing, cuts, transitions, text and title animation, and the final delivery. FIFA World Cup 2026, Motion design La Pamparina, City of Thiers
