Pierre-Luc Gosselin is a Canadian filmmaker, screenwriter, and visual effects artist based in Montreal. For over 15 years, he has worked in television, digital media, and film, building a reputation for his ability to create visually ambitious productions with limited resources. With extensive experience in directing and post-production, Gosselin stands out for his multidisciplinary approach. He began his career in comedy, co-creating several cult web series and television shows in Quebec, before turning to short films and experimental formats. His work has earned him numerous national awards, including several Gémeaux Awards (the French-language equivalent of the Emmy Awards) for best comedy directing. As an independent filmmaker, he excels at creating hybrid stories that combine humor, surrealism, and emotional depth—all with a visual signature marked by a mastery of practical effects and post-production.

Béatrice Blais began her career in comedy, doing stand-up, improvisation, and humorous radio segments, even going so far as to create her own comedy night. When the pandemic hit, she reinvented herself and discovered a true passion for writing. This shift led her to a professional screenwriting program in Montreal, where she honed her craft and developed her voice as a writer. Since then, Béatrice has been working on several television projects, both independently and collaboratively, exploring the boundary between light comedy and dark humor. Drawing on her personal experiences, she uses writing to tackle sensitive subjects with humor and authenticity.
