The goal is not to explain but to convince.
A civil engineer turned filmmaker, I help experts and executives build and embody a story that sticks.
Your situation
A deadline is approaching and your presentation isn't where it needs to be.
- You explain instead of telling a story. The audience understands but isn't emotionally engaged.
- Your delivery lacks authority. You're not projecting the perspective that would establish your credibility.
- Connecting with an audience or a camera is hard. And you can feel that discomfort showing.
Result: your talks are factual but don't generate the buy-in that could actually change things.
How it works
My background as both an engineer and a filmmaker lets me work on substance and delivery to find your voice:
- Immersive interview (2h)
You walk me through your background, the stakes of the talk, and the obstacles you're facing. Together we build the narrative foundation: angle, argument hierarchy, arc. - Rehearsal session (2h)
We work on delivery: how to make every element your own so the talk feels both genuine and convincing. We run through timing, transitions, and slides. - Day-of check-in (30min)
The day before or the morning of, we talk to lock in the key ideas and manage any nerves.

Preparing for a BFM TV interview, Nicolas helped me identify the key points of my message and step back to articulate the broader impact I was aiming for in the Open Source space — beyond the technical specifics of our solutions.
