\n\tRodeo FX<\/a> has inaugurated a new Paris studio bringing all its French divisions, including 2025 acquisition Mikros Animation<\/a>, under one roof.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Montreal-based VFX<\/a> firm, which has worked on productions such as Games of Thrones, Stranger Things, The Rings of Power, John Wick: Chapter 4 and Dune, heralds the opening of the premises as a new chapter in its French activities.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe move comes some two years after the Canadian studio established a Paris outpost<\/a>, encouraged by France<\/a>\u2019s move to up its international post-production game with a VFX incentive offering a 10% bonus on the 30% Tax Rebate for International Production (TRIP) as well as infrastructure investments. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe studio in Paris will house all of Rodeo FX\u2019s French divisions, including Film & Episodic, Advertising & Experiences, and Mikros Animation<\/a>, and is based in Rue Dieu, a stone\u2019s throw from the Canal Saint Martin in the capital\u2019s 10th arrondissement.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly proud to see our Paris office grow at such a remarkable pace. This expansion is a testament to the exceptional work delivered by our local teams and reinforces our decision to bolster Rodeo FX\u2019s European presence,\u201d says Sebastien Moreau, President and CEO of Rodeo FX.<\/p>\n

\n\tSpanning more than 40,000 square feet, the new office has been designed to support Rodeo FX and Mikros Animation\u2019s rapid expansion while fostering closer collaboration across disciplines. By consolidating its teams in a shared space, the company aims to streamline operations, strengthen creative synergy, and accelerate innovation across projects of all scales.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe journey we\u2019ve made in just two years has been incredible, with every project pushing us further creatively and technically. Entering this new chapter together, of bringing all our teams into a space as inspiring as this, only makes you want to try even harder,\u201d said Franck Lambertz, VFX Supervisor and Head of the Paris Studio.<\/p>\n

\n\tHaving contributed to European productions such as Luc Besson\u2019s Dracula and Alexandre Astier\u2019s Kaamelott, Rodeo FX\u2019s Paris-based Film & Episodic division is currently collaborating on new projects for Netflix and Path\u00e9.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn parallel, the Advertising & Experiences team has delivered high-profile luxury campaigns for brands including Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, and Herm\u00e8s.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe move into the bigger premises also facilitates the integration of Mikros Animation, which is known internationally for its work on PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.<\/p>\n

\n\tRodeo FX\u2019s acquisition of Mikros Animation followed in the wake of the collapse in early 2025 <\/a>of the France-based Technicolor Group, of which the company was one of four subsidiaries alongside MPC, The Mill and Technicolor Group.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis move represents a key step in our integration within the Rodeo FX family,\u201d said Julien Meesters, President of Mikros Animation. \u201cIt\u2019s a natural continuation of our journey, allowing us to leverage a global pipeline and innovative technologies for our next productions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rodeo FX has inaugurated a new Paris studio bringing all its French divisions, including 2025 acquisition Mikros Animation,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1767,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[514,5,1716,30,1717,1718],"class_list":{"0":"post-1766","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-paris","8":"tag-canada","9":"tag-france","10":"tag-mikros-animation","11":"tag-paris","12":"tag-rodeo-fx","13":"tag-vfx"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1766\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
