Arnaud DELORD, Co-Founder, Fortiche Production & Co-Director of Arcane
After graduating from the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in 2002, Arnaud found his footing in directing through music videos, where he explored the dialogue between live action and animation for artists such as Deus, Tahiti Boy, Stuck In The Sound, and BB Brunes. His early projects quickly stood out for their hybrid visual style and cinematic ambition, blending real-world energy with graphic worlds.
Fueled by a deep love of cinema, he naturally steered his work toward concept development and storytelling across short formats and musical pieces. That same creative drive led him, in 2009, to co-found Fortiche alongside Pascal Charrue and Jérôme Combe. As a director, he brought his vision to life on Rocket & Groot for Marvel Studios and several cinematics for Riot Games, including Get Jinxed, Welcome to Noxus, and the globally acclaimed series Arcane. His direction on Arcane earned him two Individual Achievement Emmy Awards and two Annie Awards, in 2022 and 2025. He is now part of the "creative leadership" team, continuing to shape Fortiche's artistic vision.
