Work Experience
France Television
Director Artistique
Working to create visuals for their catalog of shows and series found on re-play and streaming online. On a mission to bring a creative touch to their extensive library. I am in charge of researching images, retouching, creating titles and creating compositions in different formats to bring value to their content. I might compare it to the making of a book-cover, or more directly, the kind of visuals that you can find of Netflix with a much broader catalog. The programs often lack quality images and this is my challenge to create magic from nothing. I love this challenge.
