This is samples of the work i done at hecticelectric Paris while i was partner and manager of the company, between 2006 & 2008.

Based in Paris, the company focused mainly on advertising, specialised in VFX, but also taking care of most of the aspect of digital post-production, including avid editing, flame online finishing, scratch color grading, broadcast tape mastering.

The team reached 25 staff, including freelancers.

This project was a venture company together with Marc Kubbinga from Hecticelectric (Amsterdam, The Netherlands).

This showreel reflects part of my work as a Flame Inferno Artist. I worked in Europe, mainly in Paris, as well as London, Milano, Madrid, Amsterdam, …

As part of the few freelancers by this time (i started Inferno in 1998), i had the chance to work with some of the best VFX companies, such as BUF, Sparx, Mikkros, Dubois, Durand, and so on.
