MPC Paris Director of VFX & Post-Production Béatrice Bauwens shares her vision for the future of French visual effects in a recent interview with VFX Voice. She reflects on the evolving role of VFX in French cinema, the creative challenges behind every project, and the opportunities ahead for the industry.

The French film industry may look a little bit shy about the use of VFX. However, it’s definitely changing … the ongoing evolution of the tools allows new possibilities … At the end of the day, it is about how to make the trick help the story. (…) France is now more a part of the global industry. These are all positive signs for the future of VFX in France.”

“When you see the movie at the end, it goes so fast. All the work, all the worries for shots that last a few seconds. I guess it is very specific to our VFX world where days, even months can be spent with one open shot. It’s such a different experience than being on set where, at the end of the day, you know you have filmed.”
