WE TRANSLATE COMPLEX TECHNOLOGIES INTO COMPELLING VISUAL STORIES THAT DRIVE BUSINESS RESULTS.
We are a Paris-based, award-winning studio delivring premium photorea 3D & Motion Design for industry leaders.
FOCUS ON
Our long-standing partnership with Dassault Aviation includes «Focus On,» a film series for its web site. The narrative challenge was significant: We needed to transform advanced engineering topics, like the Falcon 6X’s zenithal window or the Rafale Marine’s landing gear, into visual stories that engage
and inform a global audience.
Our visual narrative uses a precise choreography of slow camera movements, photorealistic 3D modeling, and subtle, shaping light.
The films were an immediate success.
EXPLORER / SURVEYOR
ULTRA / NAVIGATOR
Yellow Scan, a renowned French manufacturer of lidars, has recently launched three innovative models designed to push the boundaries of environmental scanning. We were asked to create three films to showcase them, focusing on their design and functionality.
Due to tight deadlines, we emphasized the aesthetics, highlighting the unique, colorful designs that make Yellow Scan products visually striking. Each film also showcased the core capabilities of the respective lidars in their natural environments: urban landscapes, dense forests, and under water.
These films debuted at CES Las Vegas.

Motion Design of the day
MOTION PLUS DESIGN TOKYO
The annual opening for Motion Plus Design in Tokyo is a highly anticipated creative piece. Our challenge was to move beyond the traditional trailer format and to create a work with its own narrative identity.
We chose to focus on a central topic for creatives today: Artificial Intelligence. Our story visualized the creative entity of the future as a humanoid, merging AI technology with the organic structure of the human brain. This was a way to pose a fundamental question: Should we collaborate with this new reality…or should we fight it? Our opener turned a functional introduction into an effective thematic statement.
The film immediately set a reflective, forward-thinking tone for the event. It was the day’s true prologue.

FULGURANCE
The Fulgurance brand faced a dual challenge for its electrostimulation suit launch. It had to introduce a new, versatile product. It also needed to educate the public on an invisible technology and its coaching ecosystem.
Our narrative strategy merged the human experience with a technological reveal. The film starts with a realistic coaching session for an immediate connection, then takes the viewer inside the product with 3D sequences. The suit becomes transparent to show its sensors. The story climaxes with an exploded view of the central unit, the innovation’s ‘brain’. Outdoor shots then demonstrate its promise of freedom of use.
The film quickly became a major strategic asset. It was a key tool in the company’s fundraising, making its vision tangible. It also instantly established Fulgurance as an innovative market leader. The film translated a complex technology into a clear, effective, and desirable story.
CONFORT FLEX
For the launch film of the new Essilor lenses we faced a dual challenge: the integration of explanatory text into live-action footage as well as the creation of 3D segments to make complex optical technology understandable.
We used precise 2D tracking to anchor text and graphics directly into the live footage, giving it a high-tech feel. We also built a complete 3D world, including an avatar of the actress, for a seamless transition.
This translated the lens science into a clear, elegant visual demonstration.
NESTLE CLARA
Publicis Paris hired us to define the full visual identity for Clara infant formula. The challenge was to translate complex scientific data into a reassuring, aesthetic story.
We developed a minimal, clean art direction, giving each color a symbolic role: White represented purity; deep blue showed scientific credibility; and gold signified the premium nutrition quality.
The film is a journey from science to emotion.
