Creative alternative.

Low process, high standards.

Our work is based on a minimal three-phase system. We keep a continuous strategic benchmark that bridges mainstream culture with brand culture. This allows our projects to take many forms. So far, we’ve written TV shows for HBO and Amazon Studios and also communication campaigns for Rémy Cointreau and the French École Polytechnique. We’ve worked on two Wes Anderson movies and created advertisements for Chanel, Le Figaro and the French Navy. We’ve done interior design for Richard Mille and art direction for musicians like Polo & Pan and Stromae. We are currently adapting Cyrano de Bergerac into an animated film, set for theatrical release in 2027. We have rebranded the full packaging range of French high-end chocolatier Cluizel and also have a jokari brand.

Core Team

The core of Werlen Meyer is made of three partners (three brothers, including two biological ones), along with Marc Froget (studio director) and Camille Sallan (studio manager & film director). Before Werlen Meyer, these people worked in advertising agencies, business strategy consulting, handmade animation, and the movie industry. What brings them together is to use these experiences to serve new projects that often fit into multiple of these categories.
