After studying literature and qualifying as a projectionist in Strasbourg, Hélène de Roux learned cinema on film sets. By chance encounters and affinities, she became as interested in shooting as she was in writing. In 2005, she co-founded the association Ciné Système, which monitored technological developments around the first digital workflows and cameras in cinema, while making her own short films and writing articles and interviews with cinematographers, published by the AFC in particular.
Since 2013, she has created and run technical training courses in filmmaking, making the most of her network of technicians and service providers to talk about shot listing to writers and artists who want to make movies. Since 2019 she has been working with the Zeiss communications team, which gives her the opportunity to write again, but also to produce films, take photos, and meet lots of people, all the while learning more about image making and the backstage realities of cinema industry. Also on the Board of the CST (Commission Supérieure Technique de l'image et du son), she is proud of her multi-faceted role and, above all, proud to operate the camera on her films.
