As
an internet Consultant for the French
institute Alliance française
(October 2005-June 2006) www.fiaf.org, I
made (among other things) videos of their
cultural events and short presentations.
It's a very good way to "capture"
life and truth.
As a journalist-webmaster for the city
of Vitry-sur-Seine (June 2002- July
2005), I made short movies about current
events in the city. Below are some samples.

Inspiration: The Art of Editorial Cartoons
With
eye-catching imagery and clever wordplay,
an editorial cartoon says far more than
a thousand-word article, inspiring us to
look at a topic from a different perspective.
Plantu and Joel Pett, the top creative mindsand
handsfrom both sides of the Atlantic,
sketched live on stage and discussed the
art of political cartoons.
Jean
Plantu, the most famous French editorial
cartoonist, has worked for Le Monde since
1972. Joel Pett is cartoonist for the Lexington
Herald-Leader and winner of the 2000 Pulitzer
Prize for editorial cartooning. Author and
francophile Adam Gopnik moderated the discussion,
which concluded with questions from the
audience.
