Julien Zenier is a French filmmaker based in Barcelona. After nearly two decades directing international campaigns for brands like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Google, Asics, Peugeot, Mugler and Issey Miyake, he has developed a cinematic voice blending photographic realism with atmospheric intensity.

His award-winning shorts and experimental works explore memory, loss, and exile, while also embracing AI- and VFX-driven storytelling.

As one half of the creative duo Sharp Delusion, he pioneers new visual languages merging innovation with narrative craft. His ability to capture authentic performances—working with both actors and public figures such as Novak Djokovic and Cristiano Ronaldo—complements his strong visual style.

After his first short Snip, acclaimed in festivals, his latest film To The Lights has just begun its festival run. He is also developing his first feature film.
