Agathe Seau

Architect

Born in 1973 in Auvergne, Agathe Seau studied architecture and graduated in 2000. During her studies, she participated in an initiation in film analysis, scriptwriting and editing. Since then, the idea of becoming a filmmaker was born. After several years in architecture agencies first in England then in Haute-Savoie, she left for Yverdon, Switzerland where she worked as a graphic designer and did an internship as an editor in a production company. After this, she worked again as an architect in an agency in Jura; however, it didn't last so long, in 2015 she participated in training in documentary filmmaking at Ateliers Varan. Ever since, she works part-time in architecture to carry out film projects. With three associates who are fond of cinema too, she is member of the NPO Nanoprod Studio, founded in Geneva in 2015.
