Monitoring implementation Masterclass with Luc Besson from June 12 to June 14, 2014. During this training I had the chance to discover the skills and fundamentals needed to make a film properly. Beyond that I could see how to practice production techniques starting from the write-up the implementation of the factors that will contribute to the success of making the film.
I have a small theatrical experiences at the age of 21 years in Strasbourg (67).
In November 2010 I joined Acting International in order to undertake a course of several months until the end of June 2011.
In September 2011 until end of June 2012, I took theater with, among other Richard Chevallier but also by participating in open scenes Jacky Sigaux .
I did a stint in March 2013 Workshops Fanny Vallon where I had the privilege of being led by the great and memorable Fanny Vallon, founder of Arletty Prices in Paris and former student of Tania Balachova.
I discovered a new technique for teaching players with Frédéric Provost from September to October 2013. A training which has proved very effective especially in improving acting skills by working on the release of sensory automatisms, who are vital for the Actor.
In order to make my first demo tape, I joined the workshop Jerome GENEVRAY from 1rst of November 2012 to 28th February 2014.
Otherwise I played in many short films, I realized a dozen short films, three of them were selected in festivals like "Clap or no cap" or "Ramdam Tournai".
I finished writing my first screenplay in French in July 2014. I fixed the shooting plan scene by scene. Currently I have refined some scenes to make them ever more realistic. Now I am working on the improvement of that movie scenario : PSY-1-01. Theme is about a political fiction. Now I am looking for finnancing and support for that huge project.
From March 2014 to June 2014, I realized the first 3 episodes of the first season of the series N.EwsaR (New Issue of web used to Nothing) "The Lives Parigo" I'm still Actor / Director.
I have particpated to the Nikon Film festival 2015-2016 with the short "Un geste aurait suffi".
I am convinced that cinema is the only way to make people aware that to live together in peace it's not a dream but something possible if each one do the first step. Without taking care of however people's faith, religion, view, culture, ideology, ethnical group, or from where they are.
I have a dream : " Peace all around the world !"
Concerning the short GAB my note of intent :
"Around me we reproved (blamed) the lie, but we fled carefully the truth." Simone de Beauvoir - French novelist & philosopher
Even if this beautiful quote by Simone de Beauvoir could perfectly sum up the theme addressed in Gab, we must admit that the film goes much further.
Nowadays, society, consciously or otherwise, is accustomed, chained up with denial. The reason is perhaps that it is more pleasant to evade one's responsibilities by ignoring the sources of a problem than to assume its consequences.
Being aware of a discomfort may not help to avoid the consequences but can avoid the worst.
Gab exposes a problem in those days, terrorism, try to treat it philosophically while taking into account the different points of view that result.
On the one hand, there is the vision of a society out of the problem, on the other the cry of the broken, and at the center the victim, society as a whole.
When dealing with this kind of theme, you have to know how to jostle, apologize and reconcile.
By providing eloquent examples, whatever his point of view, we push the public to think, and in fact we must provide some elements of response. Our proposals must be based on universal values such as the tree of life. The peculiarity of this symbol is that it is common to all convictions.
In the end this mixture of values and reflections must lead to a balance, a conclusion that should make everyone agree.
Gab is a colorful film and to appreciate it must put aside all the preconceived ideas that everyone, whatever his point of view, could have. The challenge was great, hoping that the result would be the same.
