LE STUDIO was created in September 2019 in the South region, in Marseille. Our goal is to provide national and international productions with a production tool tailored to each project, whether it’s 2D animation, 3D animation, or even special effects, with real expertise from recognized producers.

Le Studio Animation: An Association of Talents

Having worked together for many years while traveling the world to support the success of our documentary films, short films, and feature films, Ron Dyens (Sacrebleu Productions), Alexandre Charlet (Les Films du Cygne), and Alexandre Cornu (Les Films du Tambour de Soie) decided to join forces and create a genuine production facility for demanding animation: LE STUDIO. It’s a high-quality service provider with experienced talents, artists, and technicians, open to all opportunities for national and international productions and co-productions.

Ron Dyens, the founder of Sacrebleu Productions, has received numerous prestigious awards in the field of short films (Palme d’Or, Golden Lion, Silver Bear, Oscar nominations, César, etc.). With Sacrebleu, he has produced and co-produced several feature films, including “Long Way North” by Rémi Chayé (600,000 admissions in France, sold in over 30 territories) and “Marona’s Fantastic Tale” by Anca Damian (sold in over 15 countries, nominated for the European Film Awards, selected in over 50 international festivals).

Ron Dyens has twice received the Procirep Award for Best Producer (short film and audiovisual production). He is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the French Academy of Cinema Arts and Techniques (César), and the European Film Awards. He was named a Knight of the National Order of Merit in 2019.

Since his first experience on Claude Lelouch’s “Les Misérables,” Alexandre Charlet has worked on various feature films, TV movies, and commercials in roles such as assistant director, production manager, and production director. In the early 2000s, he co-founded Les Films du Cygne, joined by Jonathan Hazan in 2009. Their catalog includes over 40 short films, including “The Snails” by Alice Vial (César 2018), “The 30 Courageous Women” documentary by Jarmila Buzkova for France Télévision, and “Even Mice Belong in Heaven,” the first stop-motion animation film directed by Denisa Grimmova & Jan Bubenicek (Official Selection at Annecy 2021 – Released on October 27, 2021).

In parallel with this delegated production activity, Alexandre developed Swan France, a label dedicated to producing advertising films, including many animated films for Les Laboratoires Boiron and Desjoyaux. He also served as an executive producer for hosting the shoots of foreign companies, including several Brazilian, American, and Russian films.

In 2014, Alexandre participated in the creation of Day for Night Productions, with Jan Vasak and Virginie Sauveur. Together, they produced documentaries such as “Despote Housewives,” a series by Joel Soler, and the feature film “Paris, la Blanche” by Lidia Terki.

Alexandre Charlet is elected to the Animation Board of the SPI, representing the Producers’ College at SUDANIM, and serves as a representative of professionals on the Board of Aura In Motion.

After pursuing literary studies, earning a diploma from ESEC, and spending a year in the army at ECPAD, Alexandre Cornu contributed to the creation of Les Films du Tambour de Soie in 1987. He became its manager in 1996. Alongside his partner, Muriel Sorbo, they produced documentary films for French channels (mainly Arte and France Télévisions) and foreign networks (RTBF in Belgium, TSR in Switzerland, AVROTROS in the Netherlands, ERT in Greece). They also produced feature films for cinema and digital projects for the web.

Alexandre Cornu is the President of Eurodoc, Vice-President of the Selective Commission of the CNC Support Fund, and Vice-President of the SUDANIM Association.

Les Films du Tambour de Soie received the French Producer Award in 2012 in the documentary category, presented by Procirep.
