Videographer in
Grenoble.

Presqu’île laboratories, Grésivaudan companies, campuses, congresses at Alpexpo: an hour and twenty minutes from Lyon, Grenoble is almost part of my usual patch. I come for a single day or for a series of shoots spread over the year.

What matters in Grenoble

So close to Lyon
that I can come back.

An hour and twenty minutes by train separates Part-Dieu from Grenoble station. This proximity changes the way of working: we can film in several sessions, come back for a missing shot, follow a project for months with no hotel costs.

Series rather than a single film

An app, a training programme or internal communications sometimes call for dozens of consistent videos. On the 240 sessions of the MOOVA app, a good part of the editing went through my hands.

Thinking vertical at the shoot

Students, young engineers and athletes watch on their phones first. As for Teddy Riner’s OLY app, I design every frame so that it also works in 9:16.

No hotel needed

With a direct regional train up to twice an hour, or an hour and a half by road, I am on site early in the morning and back in the evening: no hotel night to plan.

Case studies

Volume, vertical
and events.

A library of 240 sessions, the launch of an app in vertical format, a company anniversary over one day: three projects that resemble the requests of schools, start-ups and Grenoble businesses. Each case study shows the result.

ASPTT · MOOVA

240 sessions, a series-style organisation

The ASPTT was launching MOOVA, its app dedicated to sport and well-being, with a library of 240 sessions of 20 to 30 min, from yoga to strength training. My role: editing a large share of the sessions and managing exports and deliverables, around 17 TB of files tracked line by line in a production spreadsheet. A university, a training organisation or a company preparing a catalogue of online modules needs this same rigour.

Teddy Riner filmed in vertical format for OLY

OLY × TEDDY RINER

A sports app, filmed in vertical

For OLY, a sports coach in your pocket conceived with Teddy Riner, launch videos designed for the phone were needed. I produced this content in 9:16: the judoka facing the camera and exercises shown step by step, in a dark set crossed by green neon lights. For an Inovallée start-up or a Grenoble sports club, this is the kind of format that makes a product known on Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn.

Koezio’s 20th anniversary party

KOEZIO · 20 YEARS

A whole day, three atmospheres

Koezio celebrated its twentieth anniversary with its teams: team building, conferences, then an evening party. The film moves from team challenges to speeches, then to the evening festivities, without losing the thread. A seminar in Chamrousse, in the Vercors or at Alpexpo raises the same question: how to keep a narrative when the mood changes three times in a day.

Choosing the right
film format.

Length and format are decided according to the target audience and where they will watch the video. Here are the combinations that most often suit the laboratories, start-ups and schools of the metropolitan area.

Grenoble, the practical side

Before filming in Grenoble: four points.

Public space

A shoot in the street or on a square is notified to the City beforehand; on a private site, it is the owner’s permission that counts.

Drone and aerodromes

Strict urban rules, Le Versoud aerodrome in the Grésivaudan: every flight is checked before being proposed.

Basin light

The massifs surrounding the city shorten direct light in winter: I schedule exteriors accordingly.

Trade shows at Alpexpo

A shoot during a trade show is prepared with the organiser: accreditation, set-up slots, filming zones.

Grenoble settings

Grenoble, between
city and summits.

A flat city ringed by mountains: within minutes, you go from a laboratory to a cable car, from a lecture hall to an alpine pasture. Six areas to keep in mind.

Bastille and the Isère quays

The cable-car bubbles, the fort and the view over the whole basin: the obvious opening shot, to be filmed at dawn, before the crowds, in raking light.

City centre and Championnet

Squares, covered market, cafés and shopping streets: the ideal backdrop for an entrepreneur’s portrait, a local shop or a film about student life.

Scientific Presqu’île

Between the Drac and the Isère, international research institutes and recent buildings: filming there is by permission, with a contact person per site and zones not to be shown.

Inovallée and the Grésivaudan

From Meylan to Crolles, start-ups, SMEs and large industrial sites along the Isère: offices, workshops and technical rooms about twenty minutes from the centre.

Saint-Martin-d’Hères campus

The university estate, its lecture halls and lawns: ideal for a school, a university laboratory or a video aimed at students, subject to the institution’s permission.

Vercors, Chartreuse, Belledonne

Massifs less than an hour away: seminars in ski resorts, sporting events, outdoor brand films. Weather, access and nature-area rules are checked the day before.

Film or series

A single film
or a series?

Because Grenoble is very close to Lyon, a series of videos filmed in several sessions costs little in travel. You still need to choose the right formula from the start.

A single film

  • — One central message, one highlight.
  • — One or two filming days.
  • — Published on the website and at trade shows.
  • — Ideal for presenting an organisation.

A video series

  • + Short episodes in the same format.
  • + Several sessions spread over the year.
  • + A shared visual identity.
  • + Regular posting on social media.
  • + Useful for training or recruitment.

A lead film can in fact open a series. For a recurring programme with a studio, several cameras or a live broadcast, a much larger film crew is needed.

Portrait of Quentin Berguet, videographer and director

The videographer

Quentin Berguet,
Lyon director.

A director since 2018, I film and edit myself, animation, 3D and visual effects included. For a conference or a dense series, a camera operator or a sound technician comes to support me; you always deal with me.

Among my references: the ASPTT’s MOOVA library, the launch of the OLY app with Teddy Riner, Mars Wrigley at the TFWA, the DGAEV’s 14 July, the Afterwork Running in Valence. As Grenoble is an hour and twenty minutes from Lyon, I can come and meet you even before quoting.

FAQ · Grenoble

Grenoble,
practical questions.

Anything else to ask me? One message is enough, I reply within one business day.

What budget for a film in Grenoble?

The cost depends mainly on writing, the number of sessions, post-production and options (3D, aerial shots, subtitling, short versions). Thanks to the proximity of Lyon, travel remains a small item: regional train ticket or car, no accommodation. The detail of each item is in my video pricing guide.

Do I need to notify the City before filming outdoors?

Yes, as soon as the shoot occupies public space (pavement, square, park) with equipment or a crew. I contact the City of Grenoble’s departments several weeks beforehand to learn the conditions and lead times. In a private interior, only the manager’s green light counts.

Can the city and the massifs be filmed with a drone?

Often, but not everywhere. In the built-up area, flying is reserved for registered operators, within a precise framework. Around it, Le Versoud aerodrome and the nature reserves of the massifs have their own rules. Each zone is checked and declarations made; failing that, a view from the Bastille or a viewpoint often does the job.

And in a research institute?

Yes, following the institution’s protocol: required clothing, limited and declared equipment, certain screens or devices kept out of frame. When the subject is sensitive, the images are shown to you before any release, and confidential parts can be handled with animation.

Is a trade show at Alpexpo possible?

Yes. Alpexpo offers 42,000 m² of halls, an auditorium of up to 1,500 seats and the Summum, a 5,000-seat concert hall. I film conferences, stands and atmosphere, and produce a summary and clips. For several rooms in parallel, I come with a second operator.

Is Grenoble far from Lyon?

No: by direct regional train, Part-Dieu is only about 1 h 20 from Grenoble station, with frequent departures during the day. By car, allow about 1 h 30 on the road. No need to book a hotel for a day on site.

Do you work for universities and schools?

Yes: presentation films, portraits of students or alumni, conference recordings, educational series. The 240 MOOVA sessions taught me to organise a large number of consistent videos, with files and versions kept up to date.

Where do you work around Grenoble?

Throughout the metropolitan area and beyond: Meylan, Montbonnot, Crolles, Échirolles, Seyssinet-Pariset, Saint-Égrève, Voiron, Vizille, and up to the resorts of the Vercors, Chartreuse and Belledonne. Chambéry and Annecy are also within reach.

Videographer or production agency in Grenoble?

For an institutional film, a series or an event, a videographer-director, supported if needed, offers flexibility and a controlled budget. For a multi-camera studio, a programme or a live broadcast, you need a larger team: I describe them on my page Grenoble video production.

Can you produce a series of training videos?

Yes. We define a template together (length, branding, standard shots), then I film in sessions and edit as we go. Exports are adapted to your platform: online training tool, app, YouTube or intranet.

And for Instagram or TikTok?

Yes, that is what I did for OLY and Teddy Riner: 9:16 framing planned at the shoot, subtitles readable without sound, and if needed a horizontal version delivered alongside for the website.

Which season to film in Grenoble?

April-May and October often give the most beautiful light on the massifs. In winter, snow on the summits provides superb backdrops, but the days are short. In summer, the heat builds quickly in the basin: I favour mornings for exteriors.

Can we meet before filming?

Yes, that is the advantage of proximity. An on-site meeting or a location scout is easy to arrange, in addition to video calls and edit versions to annotate online.

What uses for the delivered videos?

You publish them freely on your channels: website, social media, trade shows, presentations, intranet. The purchased music covers these uses; a TV campaign or billboard use requires an extended licence, provided for in the quote.
