About Brunch Studio
Brunch Studio is a Paris-based animation and creative production studio specializing in 2D and 3D animation, visual effects, and cinematic storytelling. Established in 2015 within Nightshift Group, it creates game marketing films, commercials, music videos, and short films. Its work combines stylized illustration, character animation, and photorealistic CGI, adapting the visual approach to each project's narrative and artistic direction.
Game cinematics and promotional content form a central part of the studio's work. Its productions include reveal teasers, character launch animations, event films, and narrative trailers for developers and publishers. A continuing collaboration with Riot Games spans League of Legends, Valorant, and Teamfight Tactics, including Valorant: Through The Cracks and Teamfight Tactics: Heart of the Forest. Other projects include the introduction cinematic for Ghost Recon: Wildlands, an animated launch short for The Division 2: Warlords of New York, and trailers for Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope.
From visual development to finished animation
The studio's production capabilities extend from early concepts and art direction through final compositing. Pre-production includes character and environment design, storyboards, concept art, and visual development. Its CG work encompasses modeling, texturing, rigging, layout, lighting, shading, and rendering, supporting both fully three-dimensional productions and films combining 2D and 3D techniques. This range allows the team to develop a project's visual world and carry it through to finished animated sequences.
Beyond games, Brunch Studio produces animated advertising for luxury, fashion, beauty, and automotive brands. Its commercial portfolio includes work for Cartier, Hermès, Longchamp, Renault, and Bentley, alongside the animated R.E.M. Fragrance commercial for Ariana Grande, directed by Olivier Lescot.
Music videos and short-form filmmaking provide further outlets for its visual storytelling. Supported projects include Gorillaz's Tranz, Charles X's Can You Do It, and Breakbot's Another You, as well as the animated shorts Le Mans 1955 and The Last Day of Autumn. Across these formats, the studio develops animation around the characters, atmosphere, and visual identity of each production.
