OLIVIER BENAMOU

Picture
After two twists of fate, a motorcycle accident and a chance meeting with a man who would become one of his mentors, Olivier Benamou’s  path was sealed. 

These two unpredictable events led to a now 27 year career in film and TV, while working with many talented people in the industry.

Since 1993, Olivier has been a computer graphics designer/animator and a computer playback operator. In 2003, he joined the hit TV show 24 as a part-time freelancer. Less than two years later Olivier became the full-time graphic designer/animator for 24 and an official member of the crew. He worked on set, sat in weekly production meetings and created the computer animation seen on the show until its finale in 2010.  
​
​In 2016, Olivier reprised his role as the lead graphic designer and animator for 24 LEGACY Season 1.

As the longest-running espionage-themed television drama ever, 24 won several awards including the award for Outstanding Drama Series at the 58th Primetime Emmy Awards. Click here to watch Olivier and other crew members discuss elements of the show in a special feature from the DVD: 24 Season 8.

 In addition to television, Olivier’s work includes 12 feature films with major production companies including Lion’s Gate, Miramax, Warner Brothers and MGM, and commercials with Fortune 500 companies GE, Sprint and Microsoft.

He is also a talented photographer.

Since 2010, Olivier has worked as a freelancer lending his talent to TV shows including Treadstone Season 1, Quantico Season 3, Wisdom Of The Crowd season 1,  CSI season 15,  Scorpion, Intelligence,  Homeland, Grimm, Hawaii 5.0 among others.
