Alexis Coudray

Alexis is an audiovisual professional (writer-director and producer), specialising in documentaries. He is currently developing a number of wildlife projects, including a project entitled ‘Guyane, l'effet papillon’ with Zadig Productions, showing the impact of illegal gold panning on Guiana's biodiversity and society. Since 2017, he has held various production management positions at Zadig Productions and Ethan Productions, where he manages the editorial support, fundraising and production of numerous documentary and fiction films. His projects have included award-winning documentaries and feature films.

Living in the South of France, he is passionate about environmental issues and man's relationship with nature, and his current project is to make an innovative documentary about whales, exploring their world of sound and the threats posed by noise pollution. A former student of the IFFCAM (Institut francophone de formation au cinéma animalier de Ménigoute) with a Master's degree in Cinema and Audiovisual, he has a solid academic background and a wide range of practical experience in the field of audiovisual production and direction.

Alexis' deep passion for animals and in-depth understanding of environmental issues make him an ideal candidate for the project to create a documentary on whales in the Mediterranean Sea. With his experience in producing and directing wildlife documentaries, he will bring a unique technical approach and narrative analysis. His film and audiovisual training, combined with his environmental awareness, will enable him to create a documentary that goes beyond a simple scientific account, but tells an emotional story about the relationship between man and nature. His professional network in the audiovisual industry, based on his previous experience, and ability to manage film production will be invaluable assets in developing and bringing to fruition this documentary.
