Background

About

Alexis Benot is an editor, creative director, and co-founder of the post-production studio Paume and the sound studio Kitchenette, both based in Paris.

He treats editing as a field of experimentation, where rhythm, texture, sound, and image bleed into one another. His work explores the tension between narrative and sensation, seeking less to illustrate than to provoke a physical reaction in the viewer.

Through Paume and Kitchenette, he develops an approach where image, editing, and sound design are conceived as a single piece of writing. His world blends technical precision, visual research, and a taste for experimental forms, in service of films for artists, fashion houses, and international brands.
