Director's Biography
I am in charge of digital and audiovisual communication for the City of Cholet and the Agglomeration of Choletais; the image is therefore at the heart of my profession. My missions, in perpetual evolution, allowed me to use my passion for the image and to realize many promotional clips and reports, and thus to acquire experience.
Big cinema lover since my childhood, "devourer of films and series", for 7 years I have put this passion forward as artistic director of the Cholet short film festival, Hotmilk Film Makers. 7 years of discovering the short format, very different universes, fascinating encounters.
Since then, I have also been involved with the Aux Films de la Moine association, which organizes the "Adaptations", "Ciné-Mômes" and "Junior" festivals.
"Michaël" is my first real scripted project.
