Partizan is one of the world’s most acclaimed, industry-shaping film and commercial production companies. Founded in Paris in 1991 by Georges Bermann, the studio has expanded into a global powerhouse with permanent hubs in Paris, London, New York, Los Angeles, and Berlin. Twice listed as the Gunn Report’s “Best Production Company in the World,” Partizan has spent over three decades acting as a key content supplier for major ad agencies, global brands, and the music industry.
The company’s digital portfolio operates as a masterclass in clean layout design, acting as an archive for a massive collection of commercials, animation, documentaries, and interactive installations that have amassed billions of views. Partizan is deeply rooted in cinematic history—most famously serving as the creative launchpad for legendary auteur Michel Gondry, whose culture-defining music videos (for Daft Punk, Björk, and The White Stripes) and feature films (such as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) established Partizan’s signature style of blending practical optical tricks, tactile animation, and high-concept storytelling.
