We made sure a member of our team was always present to train and assist the stand hostesses.

"For the MICHELIN film, I needed collaborators who knew VR inside out and who would focus on creativity and storytelling. I ended up exactly with what I was looking for. Thanks to regular exchanges with SoWhen? from the initial script stage and throughout all the production process, I was able to make this film in the best possible conditions. SoWhen? are highly professional, great on a human level, passionate about their work, 1000% involved, lively and creative. What more could a director ask for?
