my video and film realizations

My career in the artistic and cultural sector has given me the opportunity to practice acting, directing and teaching, but also graphic design, photography, writing and audio-visual and cinematographic production.

After a period when pedagogy and directing became my main activity, in 2019 I undertook to resume film studies. I obtained a Diploma of Higher Studies in Audiovisual Production at ESRA Paris. Here you will find some of my works, into fiction, documentary or audiovisual services.

Bluetifull Sunday

Short film. Direction an editing

I gave myself the challenge of writing and making a short film of 1m30 in a weekend, to participate in a competition. I explored the theme of the perception of reality in a world where a thinning has become an anomaly, a rare moment, a memory that we keep track of through film images.

La lettre d’Henry

Directed by Pascal Rollin. First assistant, coaching actors, role of Henry and editing

A presenter appeals to the audience and takes out of his pocket the last letter written by Henry before disappearing.

The film questions the notion of temporality through a moment that reflects the thoughts, the memories, the life of Henry. I assisted my friend Pascal Rollin in the production of this short film, for which I wore several hats, including the role of Henry.

Interpretation in the short film Barbara

Barbara

Directed by Stéphane Cherpit. Co-writing and starring role

Patrick Martin finds his apartment ransacked, his companion left him. The more he looks for clues about recent events, the more his disorder increases to reveal his double personality.

I co-wrote and prepared this short film with my friend Stéphane Cherpit. We chose story-boarding precisely the taking of images, a very rewarding exercise, especially as a comedian.

Blues for L

Short film ; writing and production

It's the story of a meeting, from the first glance to the first kiss, a timeless and universal encounter recounted through an imaginary day.

My first short film. I retain a lot of good will, learning, a team and unexpected means, unforeseen and solutions .... in short, the life of a production for which experience itself remains the best of results.

Short Film by Thomas Crausaz. Role : the technician

A woman wanders the streets of an imaginary city. She meets a mysterious character on the border of fiction and reality.
