Franie-Éléonore Bernier, a prominent figure in Québec comedy, is now joining VOIR® in France, bringing her expertise in actor direction and her distinctive creative vision. Known for her boundless energy and innovative approach, she continuously refines the art of timing—whether it’s capturing a perfectly timed silence or a subtle expression on screen.
Her ability to create iconic moments with minimal elements, while also elevating scenes with bold, cinematic flair, defines her signature as a director. This mastery is rooted not only in her background in fiction, but also in the extensive experience she has gained through numerous successful campaigns.
Franie has directed several short films showcased at festivals such as Palm Springs ShortFest, Clermont-Ferrand ISFF, and Encounters. She has also created numerous award-winning advertising campaigns for brands like Volkswagen and Lotto Max. Her films blend humor and sincerity to create experiences that are funny, moving, or delightfully offbeat.
