Recently, we also launched **StoryboardHero.ai**, a platform that leverages AI to simplify and enhance the storyboarding process for video production. --- ### **What triggered your interest in French Tech?** I’ve always been passionate about technology and innovation, and my career has been shaped by the ability to integrate tech-driven solutions into the creative industry. My journey in video production evolved as I saw the impact of AI and automation in streamlining workflows and increasing efficiency. This led us to refocus our business entirely on video services and develop StoryboardHero.ai, with the goal of making creative processes more efficient and accessible. Being part of the French Tech community provides great opportunities to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs, share insights, and contribute to the global tech ecosystem from Singapore. --- ### **The thing you're most proud of?** The launch of StoryboardHero.ai stands out as a significant achievement. Storyboarding has always been a time-consuming and labor-intensive process in video production. By integrating AI with workflows and collaborative features, we've developed a solution that enables businesses to visualize their videos with unprecedented speed and efficiency. This project reflects what excites me most: combining technology and creativity to make innovation practical and scalable. --- ### **What is your wildest career goal?** My ambition is to push the boundaries of AI in video production—to make it possible for companies to automate, scale, and localize video content at an unprecedented level. We are just at the beginning of AI's potential in the creative industry, and I want to be part of the movement that reshapes how businesses create and distribute video content globally. --- ### **If you could go back in time, is there anything you would do differently?** Looking back, I would probably start leveraging AI and automation earlier. The technology has evolved so fast that waiting too long to adopt it can mean missing significant opportunities. That said, every step of the journey has been a learning experience and provided valuable insights, and I’m proud of how we’ve adapted to these changes and turned them into strengths. **If you’d like to contact Sophie Normand, you can find her on** [**LinkedIn**](https://fr.linkedin.com/in/chamira-lessigny-0822a290)**. *Get in touch with us @* *womenfrenchtech at gmail dot com****In collaboration with* [*Amel Rigneau*](https://www.linkedin.com/in/amelrigneau/) *&* [Romeo Aguilar Bernard](http://www.linkedin.com/in/roméo-aguilar-bernard)  Previous Post ###### [Maryline Marquet: Insights into the World of HealthTech](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/maryline-marquet-healthtech) Next Post ###### [Interview of Thiphaine Le Roy, co-founder, CPO CMO of Tikino](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/interview-of-thiphaine-le-roy-co-founder-cpo-cmo-of-tikino) ### Similar Blog Posts [![](https://frenchtech.sg/hs-fs/hubfs/4-2.png?width=352&name=4-2.png)](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/interview-of-thiphaine-le-roy-co-founder-cpo-cmo-of-tikino) #### [Interview of Thiphaine Le Roy, co-founder, CPO CMO of Tikino](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/interview-of-thiphaine-le-roy-co-founder-cpo-cmo-of-tikino) #### [Antonia Christou: Driving Innovation in Corporate Incubators](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/womenintech-antonia-christou) [![](https://frenchtech.sg/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Dare-to-be-BA_26Sept.png?width=352&name=Dare-to-be-BA_26Sept.png)](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/dare-to-be-a-female-business-angel) #### [Dare to be a female business angel!](https://frenchtech.sg/articles/dare-to-be-a-female-business-angel) [![academia-logo](https://frenchtech.sg/hubfs/raw_assets/public/@marketplace/MakeWebBetter/Academia/images/icons/academia-logo-white.svg)](https://www.hubspot.com/) Academia is one of the best educational theme with which you can create astounding websites.
