Here is a great short, a lot of rythm and freshness, I love the editing and the simple but efficient idea.

Directors : Pierre Ducos and Bertrand Bey
Production : SUPINFOCOM ARLES 2004

Here is an artist a little atypical, most of his work is focused on architecture, but with a really stylized treatment. Have fun discovering his portfolio, you won't be deceipt.

Profession: artiste peintre 'S' archi and urbanistic
Formation: Technical drawing DPLG
Artistes préfères: randomly Felice Varini, GLENN BARR, Jack Vettriano, John Currin, Justin Bua,francine Van Hove , Robert McGinnis and the great the unique Lucian Freud

again I'm publishing a link to a really famous artist, but if for some reason you're discovering him, I'm sure that would be a great add on to your bookmarks. Patrick Beaulieu aka "SqueezeStudio" is the king of acidulated colors and completly crazy character design. I love it.

To break the rule, here is an artist who became director (music video and tv commercials, feature film soon, who knows?)

Romain is 27 years old, lives in Paris and works for Passion Pictures. He graduated from Supinfocom (2 promotions later than me) where of course I met him. He's very nice and enthusiastic, but be carefull when talking about movies, I remember Romain being really critical and passionated about it ! Well this is from what I remember at school...

Take a look at his website where you can discover all his work. I love the overall graphic style of it.

Just so you remember he also directed the student film : Tim Tom (co-directed with Christel Pougeoise) which received a great feedback from festivals: main prize at Imagina, jury prize at Siggraph, official selection at Sundance and Annecy)
