Gobelins, l'école de l'image (French: Gobelins Imagery School) also known as Gobelins Paris is a school of visual communication and arts in Paris, France, with its main location near the Latin Quarter. A consular school funded by the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry, it provides several programs at a range of fees.
It is best known for the Cinéma Department of Animation, founded in 1975 by Pierre Ayma, who brought the school into the spotlight. It has an international reputation, producing numerous talented individuals and teams hired by the world's leading animation studios, including Disney, Universal, Hanna Barbera, Pixar, DreamWorks and Warner Bros. Its former students include many strip cartoonists and animation artists such as Didier Cassegrain, Cromwell, Yacine Elghorri, Jean-François Miniac, and Pierre Coffin. The faculty includes world-class industry leaders such as Michel Bouvet. The Animation Department is currently directed by American storyboard artist and director John Coven.[1]
Over the years, Gobelins has introduced major innovations in multimedia content, developing products for the web, CD-ROM, Interactive DVD, and public installations. The video department, created by Daniel Boullay and Guy Chevalier for the training of adult students, has since 1985 been prominent in the French technical audiovisual landscape. Led by Daniel Desmoulins, the video department allows professionals to create or analyze techniques, keeping current with the rapid evolution of industry technologies.
