About Sylvain

Senior Storyboard Artist – Advertising & Corporate Films

For over 20 years, I have been assisting agencies and directors in translating intent into strong, clear, and immediately usable images.

I create storyboards that are genuine pre-production tools: framing, pacing, staging, continuity.
My goal: to secure your project before filming and facilitate client approval.

🎯 Digital Campaigns
🎯 TV Spots
🎯 Corporate Films
🎯 Storyboards for directors' technical supports

Workflow:
Brief by email or video call (with quick live sketches if needed), roughs to approve framing and intent, then careful finalization after approval.
Fluid and responsive communication throughout the assignment (Whatsapp or email).

Deliverables adapted: pitch rough, detailed storyboard ready for filming, colorization if necessary.

Reliable, fast, and accustomed to tight deadlines.
