Creative direction + AI production. No middleman.
A 20-second AI loop for The LoopHole Project, a community film backed by GenIArt where each creator follows the same rule: fall, discover a threat, run, jump through a hole. My take: a man pours out of a feed sack, turned into a corn kernel mascot, and lands in a giant henhouse with other seed-costumed people. The hen plays freeze-tag with them. Then she gets hungry. Concept, storyboard, character design and production in full AI (Seedance 2.0, Higgsfield), with custom sound design. Goal: recruit 7,000 police officers in 2023 through the national entrance exam. The challenge: 18–25 year-olds didn't see themselves in the institution's image. The force simply wasn't on their radar when thinking about their future. We built a full 360 campaign (3 films, 2 radio spots, 6 digital creations) around their own values: curiosity, commitment, solidarity, endurance, with a dedicated message for each community of interest. We didn't change the police. We changed who thought they could join. Advertising campaign for Casden, the cooperative bank of the French public sector. I generated the key visuals with AI, then brought in an illustrator to rework every image by hand. A hybrid pipeline: AI for speed and exploration, the artist's hand for craft, consistency and character. The result is an illustrated campaign with a human, warm and distinctive style, produced in a fraction of the usual time. Full rebrand for Axepta, BNP Paribas' payment solutions brand. I led the project from concept to delivery: brand platform and creative concept, visual identity, rollout across all touchpoints, and art direction of the photo shoot. The goal: give a technical B2B payment brand a clear, modern and human face, while staying aligned with the BNP Paribas group.
