OUR STUDIOS IN ABIDJAN
A New Creative Hub in West Africa. A creative bridge between Abidjan and the world.
Located in Abidjan, a vibrant cultural capital of West Africa, Constellation Studios is designed to meet the needs of local, regional, and international productions.
While Côte d'Ivoire is experiencing renewed interest in filming-driven by its youth, talent pool, and political stability-it still lacks modern post-production infrastructure.
Constellation Studios offers a complete technical solution that meets the standards of broadcasters, streaming platforms, and international distributors.
Our goal is to strengthen the Ivorian audiovisual sector while helping emerging talent shine across borders.
Inaugurated in 2025, the studios are operated by our subsidiary Constellation Ink Africa, with a technical team trained in partnership with DIGITAL FACTORY, a company from the Atlantis Group specializing in post-production and audiovisual engineering.
