Are you an association, an NGO, or a committed project looking to tell your stories through video to be more visible and have a greater impact?

You've come to the right place! First, I'll tell you a bit more about myself.

We'll skip the first 20 years. The story begins in journalism school in Paris, where the passion for video was born. It materialized with a 3-month project across the United States 🇺🇸 during the 2012 presidential campaign. We were 21, there were 2 of us, we set up a project on our own and went to film in 10 different states.

3 years working for television channels in 🇫🇷, largely on the tragedies of 2015 and 2016, then the big leap and the move to Vietnam 🇻🇳. If you want to know more about this pivotal moment, I can tell you the story of the crab soup 🦀, don't hesitate!

As an independent videographer, I discovered Asia and filmed in about ten countries for television channels, NGOs, and companies. My best memories are the moments when I had the opportunity to tell incredible stories through video.

➡️ Interviewing survivors of a 1968 massacre perpetrated by the American army, a few months after spending a whole week with American veterans returning to Vietnam for the first time.

➡️ The incredible rescue of a football team trapped in a flooded cave in Thailand.

➡️ The story of a young apprentice baker whose life path was changed by the work of an NGO.

Back in 🇫🇷, I want to dedicate my energy to telling incredible stories within associations, NGOs, or social enterprises. Helping these organizations to visualize these life stories to better communicate their mission and their positive impact on society.
