ALEXIS WANNEROY

PLAYGROUNDS IN MOTION LONDON 2026

We’re thrilled to announce that award-winning animation supervisor Alexis Wanneroy is joining In Motion London this year.

Alexis is currently working at Fortiche Production where he played a key role in bringing the acclaimed series Arcane to life. A graduate of Gobelins, l’école de l’image, Alexis began his career at DreamWorks Animation, contributing to feature films such as Kung Fu Panda, How to Train Your Dragon, and Rise of the Guardians.  With a passion for expressive and emotionally grounded performances, his work is recognized for its blend of stylization and realism.

At Fortiche, Alexis supervises animation teams and helps shape the studio’s signature look – a unique mix of 2D aesthetics and 3D dynamism. In addition to his production work, he mentors emerging animators through international workshops and platforms like iAnimate.

Driven by storytelling, character depth and acting with subtext, Alexis brings over 20 years of industry experience to our stage, together with an enduring enthusiasm for pushing the boundaries of animated performance.
