The whole pipeline

I'm a director, editor, motion designer and 3D artist based in Paris. I started on set with music videos and brand films, then moved into 3D and motion.

Today I build commercials, game trailers and branded content from concept to delivery, in every format a campaign needs: 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1. On my own time, I keep experimenting with personal 3D series.

Every asset you see on this site is my own work: models, textures, animation, edit and grade.

Live action
