About
I produce, edit and design news videos and documentaries, specialising in visual investigation.
My videos frequently attempt to explain complex information, intricate situations, sometimes with very limited footage available. I often lean on my twelve years background in motion design, but my work also can include research, script writing, art direction, shooting, 3D modeling, coding…
I have collaborated with media outlets including Le Monde, Mediapart, BBC Africa Eye, The New York Times, and the research team Forensic Architecture.
Background
My first contact with video was through breakdance, in 2003. From my teenage years and throughout my twenties, I have been intimately involved in this movement, as an average dancer, and mainly as a videographer. Unexpectedly, this teenager's passion took me to more than 35 countries, from Korea, to Brazil, China, Nigeria… I made videos with some of the best dancers in the world, and also with hidden talents in places like El Salvador, Qatar or Sudan.
Alongside my dance journey, I studied digital media & visual design at IUT MMI Bordeaux and Hyper Island Stockholm. I began working as a freelance multimedia designer in 2009, for design studios, production companies, in various contexts and regions (France, UK, Korea…).
In 2016, I decided to take a light turn toward journalism. Soon I had the chance to join the video team of Le Monde, where I worked 2.5 years as a lead motion designer. Beside motion graphics production, I also edited news explainers, designed a new visual identity, and produced a couple of stories.
In 2019, I co-directed a documentary video series called Dans ton tel (In your phone) for Arte and the French public broadcasting.
I currently work as a freelance video producer / designer, specialising in visual investigations.
