What L'imagerie Films does

L'Imagerie Films is a premium audiovisual production agency founded in 2016 in Annecy, France, operating from a 200sqm studio with offices spanning both Annecy and Geneva. The company delivers end-to-end cinematic video production for luxury brands (Jaeger-LeCoultre, Girard-Perregaux, Van Cleef & Arpels, Hublot), financial institutions (Union Bancaire Privée), corporates (Royal Canin, Capri), and select startups and NGOs (Vaonis, Diuke, 1% for the Planet), with project budgets ranging from €5-10k for smaller jobs to €200-400k for complex luxury productions over 2-8 month timelines.

The technical stack centers on a native 8K workflow with an integrated AI Studio that combines generative video and image tools (Kling, Nano Banana, ComfyUI), in-house post-production including a dedicated color grading suite with NVIDIA RTX 5080 GPUs, motion control robotics for precision cinematography, DZO Probe Lenses for macro filming, and certified drone operations. All creative and technical processes, from direction through sound design, 3D animation, and VFX, are handled internally, with no external handoffs. Recent additions include AI-assisted workflows, immersive LED experiences up to 20K resolution, and executive production services for agency partners.

The business model is project-based professional services with fixed-price contracts, distributed through direct enterprise engagement with luxury and financial brands and through recurring agency partnerships with creative shops including Gardeners, Vokode, MNSTR, Infostrates, and Agence Signature. The company is structured as a privately held SARL with €50,000 capital, founder-owned without external funding, and operates exclusively in France and Switzerland serving Western European markets.
