Clément Dartigues
Founder & Creative Director

Clément is specialized in concept art, visual development, and art direction. He went on to design the Grizzy and the Lemmings series for Cartoon Network in 2015, which achieved widespread broadcast success in the United States.

Following this, he was approached by Netflix and LAIKA Studios, which led to his relocation to the United States. After collaborating on the Netflix film Klaus at Spa Studio, Clément felt a renewed desire to develop his own projects. He returned to his family’s land in the Landes, where he began working remotely, continuing his roles in visual development and art direction for clients such as Netflix, Illumination, Blur Studio, and Amazon Studios.

In 2024, Clément made the decision to renovate his family farm and transform the old barn into his own animation studio, creating a peaceful and inspiring environment to foster his creative work.

He’s now handeling concept art and art director activities at La Grange Animation, provinding visual development solutions to big studios such as Netlfix, Blur Studio and a lot more…

Clément is currently juggling various projects at the barn, but he will ensure the smooth development of the pre-production of Twisted and the artistic quality of what comes out of Grange Animation. He will assist the production designer and strengthen the concept art team whenever necessary.
