Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I am Niels Benoist, a video director, editor, and 3D artist.

I help brands, agencies, architects, artists, and companies create visual content that reveals the identity and uniqueness of their projects. My approach favors a cinematic aesthetic, with particular attention to natural light and authentic storytelling, to produce elegant and timeless images.

Specializing in showcasing artistic, architectural, and high-end projects, I also enjoy using my expertise for new ventures and diverse collaborations.

French-Danish and bilingual in French/English, I work with clients both in France and internationally.

You can see a selection of my work at studiodanoist.fr

If you have a project and want to give it a strong and polished visual identity, don't hesitate to contact me. I'd be delighted to discuss it with you.
