Producers Seydi Bayrak and Romain Mainson head up the new department made up of directors, photographers, creators, tech consultants, motion designers and art directors. Their mission with Quad Stories is to reimagine the limits of craft, emotion and digital culture.
“To stand out from the enormous quantity of content available, you have to be orginal and conceive storytelling for new formats whether they are horizontal, vertical, square etc,” they say. “In particular, we looked for young directors, creators and the digital natives who live and breathe these formats.”
The objective is to produce projects that are both creative and visually demanding, while meeting the budgetary objectives associated with these new formats. “Whether they are
simple or more complex, we must find solutions that are more in line with this type of production,” they explained.
