About
Mireille held executive roles in Montreal and Toronto inside large American firms. Benoit nearly demolished a Boeing with a Renault 5 on a shoot for Air France. Maybe that gap is the best summary of how we complement each other.
Journalists, directors, producers, musicians, authors, designers, teachers, speakers, founders — for thirty years we've worked together. Thirty years refusing the marked path, including the day Spielberg's team reached out.
We've trained students who now work on the biggest films in the world. Written about image technology in a dozen countries. Brought the Avatar team to Monaco to talk about the future of cinema. One night, in a village in the south of France, the drummer of Scorpions — who'd come to play under improbable conditions — collapsed into Mireille's arms and said "thank you for being there."
Our figurine brand, Raging Heroes, made $50,000 in thirty seconds on Kickstarter. $200,000 in six hours. $1,000,000 in a month. We did it again two years later, landing in the top 0.05% of the most-funded projects on that giant of crowdfunding.
Both of us were diagnosed — recently — with ADHD, high potential, and ASD. In hindsight it explained a great deal: why borders never really stopped us, and why independence is necessary to our survival.
Today AI finally gives us the tools we'd been waiting for, to realize the many projects that live in us — far from corporate logic, in a context where you can, above all, work with sincere people and real values.
Some lives fit in a few lines. Ours overflows.
