BIOGRAPHY

Born on May 27th 1982 in Senlis, France, to a violin-maker and a horsewoman, ADAAM grew up in a split home.

Due to this circumstance, he often moved and therefor discovered many places (the Island of Bréhat, Chamonix, Vannes, Angers and Tahiti).

As a teenager, he developed a passion for photography and cinema, which drove him to study in the parisian film school, ESEC (École Supérieure d’Études Cinématographiques) from which he graduated in 2007.

As soon as he finished his studies, he travelled for four months in Canada, where he got his first contract as editor of a documentary film.

Back in Paris, in 2008, on a film set he met the producer of Milofilms who hired him as art director.

Throughout that same year, ADAAM also worked as a reporter and editor for the TV channel “Shorts TV International”.

One year later he decided to direct institutional films, making-ofs, news stories, music videos and his short film “Roving Analysis”, shot in Spain. This film has been selected for the “Banlieuz’Art” contest, the short film corner of The Cannes festival, 2011 edition.

Nowadays, ADAAM lives and works as director, editor and photographer between Paris and Mexico City.
