With my humor, my passion, and my expertise… Let me enchant your ears! Since I was little, I have been passionate about music. It understands me 1000%, it moves me, it’s my language. The proof is that my school teacher, amazed by my wild improvisation of "Ah vous dirais-je Maman!" on a recorder - upside down, please! (she was already using me as a microphone 😊) suggested to my parents to enroll me in the conservatory; I was 9 years old and I would spend 10 years there. Then, I entered the École Normale Supérieure de Musique de Paris and validated several licenses and diplomas (harmony, counterpoint, and film music with Laurent Petitgirard (nearly 140 film scores and former president of Sacem). Later, the advice of Gabriel Yared (The English Patient, Tatie Danielle, 37.2 ...) confirmed my passion for film music. But that's not all! I dreamed of knowing more. So, like Indiana Jones venturing into the world of music (and more specifically the music of the Andes in Ecuador), I headed to the University of Paris 8 for a master's in ethnomusicology. What is this ethno-thing? It’s understanding and analyzing a society through its music. Today, I give UNIQUE conferences and masterclasses on the secrets of film music. Why choose my conferences? …Let me amaze you… I change your perspectives. For over 10 years, my conferences have transformed the perception of music for hundreds of participants: professionals, enthusiasts, composers, screenwriters, and even the general public met during festivals, media libraries, and film schools. Together, we explore how music subtly influences our emotions, our decisions, and even our professional and personal lives. - After my interventions, you will discover how music - the script of the invisible - shapes our emotions, our decisions, our way of communicating, and even our inspiration. - I awaken your attention. By exploring the subtleties of film music, I help you develop active listening and the ability to perceive beyond appearances – valuable assets for innovating, collaborating, and understanding. - I transform the moment into a journey. With humor and passion, I take you to explore unsuspected dimensions of music, creating inspiring parallels between its power and our human relationships, our projects, and our ability to inspire others. My motto: transmit, inspire, compose.

Film Music: The Invisible Manager of Emotions
You’re being seduced by sound! Film music, the invisible manager of emotions. What if Mad Max roared to the melody of Little House on the Prairie? Or if Titanic sailed the waters to the sound of Super Mario? Imagine Gladiator battling to a melody played on a recorder... Film music is not just a sound backdrop: it gives meaning, guides attention, and evokes emotions. Just like a manager orchestrates their team to create a smooth and effective dynamic. In this conference, discover how these two worlds converge through common principles: organizing elements, directing actions, and learning to see and listen. Film music and management, really?
