UNIT IMAGE

☝️ Have you ever had a random conversation on a train that inspired you? On the way back from the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, one of our co-founders, Léon Bérelle, found himself sat next to Dr. Heïdi Sevestre, a glaciologist, lecturer, TV host, and active member of climate change initiatives like AMAP. Their conversation proved transformational, filled with mutual passion for our planet. Inspired by their discussion, Leon adjusted his schedule to attend the Tech for Climate ? event, to bring back valuable information to enrich our CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) policy. He engaged with climate experts and explored actionable steps we can take to make a difference. The insights gained were truly eye-opening. At Unit Image, we believe in the power of small changes to make a big impact. While the animation industry often relies on extensive computing resources, we're committed to reducing our carbon footprint. Since its creation we have put in place CSR initiatives including: - 🚫 A no-paper policy - 🌱 Partnering with suppliers who use organic products and electric transport - ♻️ Composting and recycling in our kitchen - 🌷 Securing a gardening box outside our studio - 🌡️ Installing an air filtration with double flow ventilation system for heating and cooling What's next? 🤔 We aim to leverage the millions of views our films generate to support causes we care about. We plan to create more impactful videos and engage in projects that deliver meaningful messages. You can check out one of our previous projects "Le Bete" produced alongside BETC Paris and FLAC (Federation Fighting Against Corrida) that denounces bullfighting, https://lnkd.in/dP-26TQr as an example. Together, we can achieve great things and Leon's train conversation was a powerful reminder of that fact! #UnitImage #CSR #ClimateAction #Sustainability #Animation #ImpactfulStories #Tech4Climate #AnnecyFestival #EnvironmentalResponsibility

What’s your love language? At Unit Image we are more 'acts of service,' but sometimes 'words of affirmation' is important to make sure that the love gets spread around. We're proud to celebrate Pride Month, recognizing the vital contributions of the LGBTQIA+ community in the animation industry. Animation has always been a medium for diverse storytelling, and the creativity and uniqueness that LGBTQIA+ artists bring to our projects makes them richer. As we reflect on the importance of inclusion and representation, we continue to foster a supportive environment where everyone can express their true selves. Here's to a vibrant and inclusive future in animation where we speak all the love languages! #PrideMonth #LGBTQAI #Diversity #Inclusion #Animation #UnitImage

🌍 200 render farms and 150 workstations running non stop to create top quality movies with clean energy from militant provider?🌍 Challenge accepted. How do we achieve this? Well, Unit Image switched its electricity supplier to Enercoop, embracing 100% renewable, citizen, and solidarity-based energy! That's how. This change marks a significant step in our commitment to sustainability and reducing our carbon footprint. By partnering with Enercoop, we ensure our operations are powered by clean energy, directly supporting local producers of wind, solar, hydro, and biomass energy. This aligns perfectly with our core values of innovation and responsibility. But it also matches the values of the company that shares our extra office spaces, LITA.co . Lita.co is a crowdfunding platform dedicated to responsible investment, who allows individuals to invest in projects and companies with a strong social and environmental impact. Together, we champion transparency and the belief that economic performance should go hand-in-hand with social and environmental progress. This collaboration underscores our shared vision: investing in a sustainable future. At Unit Image, we are excited to work alongside these forward-thinking organizations, driving change and making a tangible difference. Let's build a greener, more just and more responsible world together! 🌱 #UnitImage #Enercoop #LitaCo #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #ResponsibleInvestment #SocialImpact #EnvironmentalResponsibility

Should companies offer massages during working hours? For the last 5 years, our trustee Shiatsu Master David comes twice a month to give 15 min massages to the members of our team. The benefits: - Less stress - Time away from screen - Time to reflect and get imaginative - Healthy body, healthy mind This week we are upgrading the treatment to 3 days of 20 min massages. Why this week? Have you heard of QWL week - quality of work life? Let us explain one of our favorite weeks of the year. In France this week is dedicated to Quality of Work Life (even though it should be all year round). This year it starts today (17th) until Friday 21st of June and we will be spoiling our team with culinary (healthy) treats, massages and a stretching session on Friday morning to make sure they are ready to either 1. Dance all night at la fête de la musique or 2. Scream their lungs out at the first French Euro football game! Which one will you do? Overall Quality of Work Life is vital for maintaining a happy, healthy, and productive team. By focusing on improving QWL, Unit Image can achieve better overall performance, nurture our positive culture and value every talent we have onboard. Happy team, better films #QualityOfWorkLife #EmployeeWellBeing #Productivity #CompanyCulture #Innovation #UnitImage
