Artistic director

Artistic direction is first and foremost about having ‘an eye’.
Its primary function is to sell an idea, having a gravitas-driven vision in order to convince via an attractive and understandable way any member of an audience of our ingenuity. It’s also about knowing how to cleverly handle all the visuals at hand to reach the client’s goal - well at least that’s what I teach my students.

I work on several areas of the field as an artistic director, but those which are the most frequent (and my personal favourites):

treatments for ads, feature films and other media projects
artistic direction for the fashion industry
artistic direction in photography, with and without A.I.

treatments for ads, features and other media projects

I've been working as a creative researcher for 16 years, and I’ve worked on over 500 treatments.

I work for / with all genres (premium, food, comedy, lifestyle, sport, cars, fashion, etc).
My video director and artistic director skills are of great help to make job winning treatments. I’m flexible and understand quickly clients’ needs, agency inputs, and producers ideas.
I particularly enjoy making interactive treatments, especially when the deadlines work with allowing proper layout building.

A.I. and Canva will make good treatments no one can deny that. But there won’t be any talent or soul displayed. While these tools can deliver acceptable results, true artistry cannot be automated.

artistic direction for the fashion industry

I always had a thing for fashion, and menswear fashion in particular.

Projects on which I worked progressively ranged from photoshoots jobs, directing jobs, and even fashion design (I design ties for example).
Living in London for 15 years, I developed a strong affinity for sartorial style, which has proven most fruitful. I love it, though there are other genres I’m fond of (gorpcore, sportswear, drag, streetwear, etc).

artistic direction in photography, with and without A.I.

Photography is a highly malleable medium, especially when having used the Adobe suite for many years and having started using A.I. since its very beginnings, it’s easier to create the world the client is after.
A spontaneous link between demand and personal interests creates diversity in my projects.

A.I. photography, as shown in Privas Photo Festival 2024:

I was the only A.I. exhibitor on the Privas Photo Festival 2024. My participation in the festival ruffled a few feathers, sprung interest and curiosity, from the public as well as from the other exhibitors. Ardèche is a rather rural region of France, but it’s nice to see it picks up the pace : )
