Marjorie Caup

Trained in drawing and a graduate of the Beaux-Arts in Toulouse, Marjorie discovered video art early on and quickly specialized in animation. After two years at the La Poudrière film school - where she directed Petit Maître and Transhumance (her graduation film) - she immersed herself in exploring traditional techniques. She went on to create several short films, including Le petit hérisson partageur, a paper cut-out piece aimed at young audiences, and Le pont Mirabeau, an ink-on-paper adaptation of a poem by Guillaume Apollinaire. She also worked as a scenic painter on Ma vie de Courgette, served as an animator for L’extraordinaire voyage de Marona, and further experimented with painted animation for a documentary.

Olivier Héraud

Olivier studied film at university before training as an actor at Cours Florent. He soon turned to writing and directing short films, earning multiple awards. His creativity led him to the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight in 2010, where he was invited to serve on the short film jury and make a documentary about the award-winning director Sean Durkin. He went on to tackle a wide range of projects, collaborating with various brands and honing a style marked by poetry and humor - sometimes absurd, sometimes biting.
