    Director at SPUNK by EVERYONE ENTERTAINMENT. SPUNK is the meeting of two minds, Stephane Goddard and J.P. Bouix, who decide to work together in order to bring their own way to tell stories through an elegant drawing and the force of motion pictures. After three years of several motion comics and concept arts for different projects, they had a strong desire to go further into punchy pictures and a true narrative content. 10050, a fictionalized story about the aborted career of Sharon Tate, is their first great animation project where they shout a true love for this huge actress.
