“Why The French Director?
“Because I’m french and I’m a director”.
FILM MAKER
I’ve been a film maker for many years creating content producing films for many people, mentoring a lot of people in making their first film project as well as teaching film and photography to various age groups.
My passion is in directing and storytelling having produced many projects and some award-winning shorts. I aim to be as creative as possible and help others follow their creative passions.
Idriss was especially great at paying attention to detail and really helping us to bring meaning and context to the scene. I would recommend the experience to anyone and I am really happy with the final edit and screenshot. I’m sure my agent will be pleased.

‘I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for you hard work and professionalism in getting the scenes and showreel completed for my daughter Madi, I know you put Madi at ease and she totally loved the day she spent with you all and learned so much. We will definitely be back in the future to Bazan should we need another bespoke reel done.

Getting back into the industry after some considerable time away, I knew that I needed showreels to showcase my abilities.
Idriss directed and produced two showreels for my portfolio and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
Right off the bat, Idriss was both professional and warm and made me feel at ease. He took time to understand me, my goals and the way that I interpret my characters both within the scripts and outside of them.
He is very observant and he has a way of drawing that special something in you toward the surface so that you can deliver a brilliant performance that is authentic and thought provoking.
Usually building trust takes time but as we know in this industry time can really be of the essence, Idriss is able to establish and maintain trust expeditiously and with great care and attention to detail, always checking in to make sure you’re ok, especially when filming emotionally charged scenes.
You will be in very capable, talented and safe hands when working with The French Director!
Thanks again Idriss, it was an absolute pleasure to work with you.

Idriss made me feel completely at ease throughout the shoot. I found it really beneficial to have an in-depth discussion about the characters at the start as it helped with my approach when we began shooting. Idriss applied lots of really interesting techniques to help myself and fellow actors explore our characters and get into the zone. He was extremely patient and a pleasure to work with! The final shot looked great!
