Thibaut Charlut is both a director and a director of photography. He approaches both disciplines with the same level of dedication, allowing each to inform the other: his eye as a cinematographer sharpens his storytelling, while his directorial experience deepens his visual sensibility.

He first made his mark with La Blogothèque, directing three seasons of the "Reprise" series for Culturebox, featuring performances from artists such as The Libertines, Arlo Parks, Hot Chip, and Black Pumas. He also directed the music video "The Eyes" for The Blaze and staged the closing ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics in collaboration with choreographer Sadeck.

As a director of photography, he has worked on major music productions, including "Angèle tout seule" (Canal+), live sessions for Arte’s Release Party (La Femme, Myd, Catastrophe), and performances for Phoenix (Amazon), Stromae (France TV), and the Arte Concert Festival.

In 2015, he directed his first short film, "Les Animaux ne s’enterrent pas", produced by Holden with support from the CNC and the Grand Est Region. His narrative work continued as director of photography on series such as "Amours Solitaires" (Arte, Slash) in 2019 and "18h30" (Arte) in 2022.

In 2022, he directed "Picasso Dance" for Arte, a series of eight films exploring the connection between movement and visual art. More recently, he collaborated with Aya Nakamura and Lancôme on an exclusive concert at the Domaine de la Rose. In 2025, he serves as the lighting designer for "Culturebox Le Show", broadcast in prime time on Culturebox.

Open to collaborations, Thibaut Charlut brings his dual expertise as a director and director of photography to a wide range of projects, from fiction to advertising, as well as music and artistic productions. His style is defined by a refined, timeless, and elegant aesthetic, built with precision to create clear, meticulously crafted visuals.
