Filmmaker and screenwriter, Raphaël Frydman explores the intersection of cinema, visual art, and artificial intelligence.
Through his studio, ARSHAV, he crafts hybrid narratives where visual experimentation meets human emotion.
Raphaël Frydman has been shaping moving images since childhood, from VHS experiments to international productions.
Over two hundred films later, his experience spans fiction, documentary, music videos, branded content, and advertising.
He moves with ease between large scale shoots and solitary, handcrafted filmmaking, blending instinct, precision, and emotion.
His directing practice combines a strong visual identity with a curiosity for people, rhythm, and light.
Raphaël Frydman, after his award-winning short film La vie quand t’ai mort, has been creating full-AI and hybrid films in the commercial space.
Frequently consulted by fellow directors and productions for his expertise, he also lectures and teaches on AI & cinema.

Raphaël Frydman writes stories for both short and feature films.
He imagines narratives for all kinds of projects, from film noir to comedy.
He scripted L’Échelle de Richter, a graphic novel published by Gallimard and illustrated by Luc Desportes.
