"Émile in Paris" is a series of mini-films directed by the Turbo Collective
The overall tone of the films is somewhere between comic and bizarre, with some hilarious and original monster designs. We follow Emile, a little aviator monster who twirls in the capital, encountering other wacky creatures along the way.

In 1924, George Mallory and Andrew Irvine attempted to climb Mount Everest and were never seen again. Seventy years later, Makoto Fukamachi, a young Japanese reporter, encounters a mysterious mountain climber named Habu Joji, in whose hands Fukamachi thinks he sees Mallory's camera, which might reveal if Mallory and his companion really were the first to climb Everest.
The Summit of the Gods tells Fukamachi's obsessive quest for the truth about the first expedition to Mount Everest.
This animation is one of the two films made for La monnaie de Paris. We crafted both films in traditional animation from a visual style developed by Leila Courtillon. We conceived them as long takes that combined impressive camera movements (animated in 2D) and a very rough style, which created a sensation of perpetual movement, speed, and lightness. Director Hugo Ramirez selected iconic monuments of La Monnaie de Paris's cities, which enabled us to design astonishing and spectacular transitions composed of morphs and wipes. The animation was led by the talented Olivier Lescot who interpreted designs with a wonderful sense of fluidity.
