《 Travailler avec LE BESTIAUX des vidéos c’est une chance de pouvoir travailler avec un gars rempli de talent qui est aussi passionné que moi pour son métier. Efficacité, professionnalisme, qualité et surtout passion. Merci pour ton dévouement et ta générosité!》
Reclaim The Throne
《 We had a complex storyboard for our song "Hollowborn" ; no experience prior to this first clip. Frank did many session with us just to plan everything out, the whole time being thrilled by our project. He took a day off just to setup the decor with us and make sure we're ready before the shoot. When the day arrived, I had so many people to attend to, gear to manage, etc. I basically left him to direct the whole set and he knew exactly the order of every scene just because he took so much time discussing with us and foreseeing the vision we had in mind. He was so hyped that he had a first full version of our clip done the very next day, even though we ended up shooting at 1am. Truly a MVP that goes above and beyond to meet your expectations.》

《 It's always a pleasure working with Francois Bertrand. He has a great sense of knowing what is going on in the industry, offering only the best tips and a unbeatable quality of work. You can never go wrong with the Bestiaux!
When you first meet him, he comes prepared with a few ideas for your project already written down. He starts by looking into a possible budget, your general idea of the project and things you'll need for the shoot. Once that's done, he comes up with a plan to reach that goal. On THE day, Frank is completely geared up! Staying alert, he cracks some jokes here and there, making the atmosphere more relaxed and pleasant. While being very serious when it comes to filming. As a bonus, we're lucky enough to have his girlfriend Elycia, as a makeup artist/special effects on set, who's also there to help Frank. The "Bestiaux" is the full package that you need for your videos. With his multi-lens artillery machine and fire spotlights, you're ready for war!》

《 I had worked with François during activities for Immersion Rock Montréal and I quickly found out that he worked incredibly fast and always gave on point results ! I then decided to hire him as director on my personal music video because I had the feeling he could be creative, open minded and sensitive (my music is all about that).
I was not wrong ! The final result is even better that I could have imagined and I most definitely want to hire him again on my next project !
A hard worker with a great artistic mind.》
