WIZZ Director Jules Bourgès Makes Music Video Debut With “Belle” for Mistthom

Posted on Sunday, October 11, 2026

Director Jules Bourgès, who we first spotted in 2019 as one of the student co-directors of this Gobelins film, just released this hand-crafted animated fantasy for composer/producer Mistthom, produced thru WIZZ in Paris.

From WIZZ: Step into the fantastical world of Jules Bourgès. Structured like a fairy tale, the film portrays the madness of a king who will stop at nothing to satisfy his greed.

This is Jules’s first music video, and a huge privilege for us to have supported him on this journey. A big thank you to the crew, and thanks to Le CNC (Centre national du cinéma et de l’image animée) for supporting projects like this that bring emerging talent into the spotlight.
