ANIMASHOW S2.E6

SUMMARY
For this episode, I'm delighted to welcome Hélène Juguet, Director of Ubisoft Film & Television Paris. Hélène has seen the wild growth of French video game champion Ubisoft since its inception, overseeing the Tom Clancy franchise, Splinter Cell, E3 and now the audiovisual destiny of Ubisoft franchises such as Les Lapins Crétins as an animated series for children, Assassin's Creed at the cinema ($250M at the box office), Splinter Cell, Captain Laserhawk and Far Cry as animated series for adults on Netflix. Ubisoft is once again taking a major step towards the convergence of the worlds of animation and video games, the most likely outcome of which remains the Metaverse!
