On Location
Unit publicists wired into French entertainment press
Here is how this works in practice. Unit publicity in France has to land bilingually. French outlets (Le Film Français, Écran Total, Première, Allociné, AFP entertainment desks) and the global trade press read off the same EPK pack, the same OK'd stills, and the same on-set access list, and our unit publicists run that pipeline from prep through delivery. They work the major French production centres. Paris and Île-de-The country stages around La Cité du Cinéma, Lyon, Marseille and the Côte d'Azur corridor through Cannes, Bordeaux, Toulouse, and Lille. And they bring real festival-floor relationships at Cannes, Deauville, La Rochelle, Annecy, and the CNC-supported markets.
Here is the short of it. In practice, the unit publicist owns the still-photography schedule, EPK shoot days, behind-the-scenes coverage, social-media-cleared content, and press visit access that the 1st AD has signed off on. While protecting cast-approval rights, contractual image clauses, and spoiler-sensitive material. The work is bilingual French-English by default, scheduled inside Convention Collective production audiovisuelle hours, and logged so any TRIP or CNC qualifying-spend audit on the publicity line clears cleanly.
