Boasting a roster consisting of some of the most exciting, hand-picked, up and coming directors from across the world. Octane has been established to offer a flexible and exciting solution to the ever-evolving landscape and demands of content creation.

“Octane is far more than a group of young and exciting directors,” said Emmanuelle Le Chat, UK managing director of Ocurens. “Octane is set to become the fuel the industry relies on to evolve and erupt, powering and moulding the next generation of industry leading, creative talent. In addition, Octane has been created to specifically meet the needs of our clients who want to have a more flexible solution to their digital content creation needs to maintain pace with the way they engage and influence their audiences. Working together, Octane gives them this unique, flexible, creative solution without having to sacrifice any of the quality.”

Octane combines the pure creative instincts and desires of its directors, with the support, commercial and industry know-how of the Ocurens team, to produce the highest quality of digital content that captures the imagination and remains in the minds of those that watch it.

“We have spent the last year looking at the best way to maintain the legacy left behind by the late Valentin Petit, my co-founder,” said German Robin, co-founder and director of Ocurens. “It is with great pride and excitement that we can launch Octane knowing that we have stayed true to Valentins’ vision of nurturing, embracing and providing a platform to showcase and support the future of our industry.”
