About me

Valentin FRANÇOISE • [ Line Producer ]
Founder of MEADOW PICTURES

Born and raised between Paris and New York City, I learned and assimilated the American and European languages and cultures.

I started to work at 18 years old as a PA for features and TV shows, then worked in Location Management / Unit Management / Production Unit Management for a decade.

My past experiences were mainly on foreign productions coming in France, also on local French movies, and foreign countries around the world (Europe & Asia).

Previous missions passed through collaborations with companies like HBO (East and West), A24Apple TV, Pathé group productions, Mediawan group productions, more independent projects etc. as well as luxury brand for commercials contents like Chanel.

My global experience brought me a solid network, composed by French, US, European and Asian producers, crew members, company representatives, and even official state representatives for CNC in France or Films Commissions.

Being on set for years gave me what I’m the proudest of: deep knowledge on how to build a film, for real, and made me a well known and appreciated teammate.
