Sphère Communication

What Sphère Communication does

Sphère Communication is a French bespoke audiovisual production agency founded by Stéphanie (Producer) and Étienne (Producer-Director), both former professionals at TF1, France 5, and Canal+. The firm is headquartered in Valence (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes) with additional offices in Paris and La Rochelle, and serves clients across at least eight French regions via an in-house team of nine supported by a freelance network. Its service portfolio spans corporate/institutional films, promotional videos, event coverage, client testimonial videos, 2D/3D motion design, drone and 360° immersive videography, social media videos, RSE/CSR videos, and professional photography, delivered as end-to-end projects from concept and scriptwriting through shoot, post-production (editing, sound design, color grading), and platform-tailored delivery.

The business operates on a project-based professional services model with transparent published package pricing ranging from approximately EUR 1,750 HT for a simple talking-head edit up to EUR 10,000+ HT for multi-video packs and complex productions. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: clients initiate engagement via phone, email, or website quote forms, followed by free consultation and custom quote generation. The customer base is concentrated in French B2B enterprises (with logos including Chanel, TotalEnergies, IBM, AbbVie, Engie, Alstom, HP Aruba, Groupe Colas, Crédit Agricole, Soprema), complemented by public-sector clients (CIG Petite Couronne), trade associations (Fédération Française du Bâtiment, a 20+ year relationship), and NGOs/environmental organizations. The company is privately held, founder-owned, and bootstrapped, with no disclosed external funding, M&A activity, or institutional investors.
