NEWS / ACTUALITÉS
The CE3P (Centre for Teaching and Improvement of Professional Photography) prepares its students for professional diplomas such as the French BAC and BTS in photography. Recognized for its expertise, it has become an essential partner of Sheriff Projects: many of its alumni have joined the company as interns or employees, highlighting the relevance of this strong link between education and the professional world.
Sheriff Projects, a specialist in photography and visual production, supports creative professionals with a complete range of services: rental of high-end photography equipment, fully equipped photo studios in Paris, professional photo retouching for advertising and e-commerce, video post-production, and fine art printing. By collaborating with CE3P, the company provides students with a concrete understanding of fashion and luxury photography careers, while immersing them in the daily reality of professional production studios.
In 2021, Sheriff Projects strengthened this collaboration by offering BTS students an introduction to the photographic chain, specifically designed for the creation of fashion and luxury images. This partnership began with a tour of the facilities, giving students the opportunity to discover the full range of services: still life studio, fashion studio, technical workshop, fine art service for art photography printing, and the dedicated areas for advertising and e-commerce photo retouching.
Students were able to handle state-of-the-art professional photography equipment, often unavailable within schools, and take part in a hands-on photo shoot. They then deepened their knowledge of photo retouching and post-production techniques, gaining insight into the requirements of images created for fashion brands and advertising campaigns.
In addition, CE3P regularly organizes conferences in which Sheriff Projects’ teams (photographers, retouchers, producers) share their expertise and present different photo and video production projects. These exchanges allow students to better understand the diversity of careers in professional photography: shooting, production management, post-production, and technical support.
The partnership goes beyond skills transmission: Sheriff Projects also supports the school through an apprenticeship grant. The collaboration also includes networking with alumni: during the immersion week of the new BTS class, a former student, now a producer within the company, returned to present his career path and share his professional experience in photo and video production.
New collaborative projects are already being considered, always with the aim of strengthening the bridge between education and professional practice. The partnership between Sheriff Projects and CE3P reflects a shared commitment to training the next generation of photography professionals, by giving them access to professional photo equipment, state-of-the-art studios, and expertise in photo retouching and post-production.
Le CE3P CE3P (Centre pour l’Enseignement et le Perfectionnement de la Photographie Professionnelle) prépare ses étudiants aux diplômes du BAC et du BTS de photographie. Reconnu pour son expertise, il est un partenaire essentiel de Sheriff Projects : de nombreux alumnis de l’école ont rejoint l’entreprise en tant que stagiaires ou employés, confirmant ainsi la pertinence de ce lien entre formation et monde professionnel.
Sheriff Projects, spécialiste de la photographie et de la production visuelle, accompagne les professionnels grâce à une offre complète : location d’équipement photo haut de gamme, mise à disposition de studios photo à Paris, services de retouche photo publicitaire et e-commerce, post-production vidéo et impression fine art. En collaborant avec le CE3P, l’entreprise transmet aux étudiants une vision concrète des métiers de la photographie de mode et de luxe, et leur permet d’expérimenter le quotidien des studios de production.
En 2021, Sheriff Projects a renforcé cette collaboration en proposant aux étudiant·e·s de BTS un parcours d’initiation à la chaîne photographique, spécialement pensé pour la création d’images mode et luxe. Ce partenariat comprenait une visite des locaux afin de découvrir l’ensemble des services : studio de nature morte, studio porté, atelier technique, service fine art pour l’impression de photographies d’art, ainsi que les espaces dédiés à la retouche photo publicitaire et à la retouche e-commerce.
Les élèves ont ainsi pu manipuler du matériel photographique professionnel de dernière génération, souvent indisponible dans les écoles, et participer à un atelier pratique de prise de vue. Ils ont ensuite approfondi les méthodes de retouche photo et de post-production, découvrant ainsi les exigences d’une image destinée aux marques de mode et aux campagnes publicitaires.
En parallèle, le CE3P organise régulièrement des conférences durant lesquelles les équipes de Sheriff Projects (photographes, retoucheurs, producteurs) viennent partager leur savoir-faire et présenter différents projets de production photo et vidéo. Ces échanges permettent aux étudiants de mieux comprendre la diversité des métiers liés à la photographie professionnelle : prise de vue, direction de production, post-traitement et gestion technique.
Le partenariat va au-delà de la transmission de compétences : Sheriff Projects soutient également l’école à travers le versement d’une prime d’apprentissage. Cette collaboration inclut aussi des temps d’échange avec les alumnis : lors de la semaine d’immersion de la nouvelle promotion de BTS, un ancien étudiant aujourd’hui producteur au sein de l’entreprise est revenu présenter son parcours et partager son expérience dans le monde de la production photo et vidéo.
De nouveaux projets de collaboration sont actuellement en cours de réflexion, toujours dans l’optique de renforcer le lien entre pédagogie et pratique professionnelle. Ce partenariat entre Sheriff Projects et le CE3P illustre la volonté commune de former les futurs talents de la photographie, en leur donnant accès à du matériel photo professionnel, à des studios équipés et à une expertise reconnue dans la retouche et la post-production.
