Alex Fouquet is a director & cinematographer working between Paris and New York City.
Because he believes art is the perfect assemblage of perseverance, emotions, and self-recognition, Alex's cinematography has the power to inspire freedom through intimate stories his audience universally connects with.
Authentic, edgy, and inspiring visuals has brought him to work with top brands including Chanel, Google, Spotify or Marriott.
"I don’t know if I had any direct influence for Young Again. I started by filming an empty New York City but realised that there was much more to tell.
Originally, I wanted the film to be set to a single soundtrack, and it didn’t work. It took me 4 months of editing multiple versions to find the one that fits the most with what I wanted to talk about.
Today, it’s a real challenge to tell a strong story with the little time the audience spends watching a video on social networks. But I think it’s possible if you tell a universal story.
And most of the films that influenced me the most, include the subject of redemption."
