A Self-Taught Artist Whose Concept Work Helped Shape The Creator, Splinter Cell, and Love Death Robots

Thomas Dubois is a French filmmaker, art director, and former architect from Montpellier who reinvented himself as a self-taught concept artist, digital painter, and 3D creator.

His early online worldbuilding projects caught the attention of Gareth Edwards, leading to work on The Creator, and he later contributed to Netflix’s Love, Death & Robots and served as an art director on Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, which earned a Best Adaptation nomination at The Game Awards.

He has since directed his own short films, starting with the sci-fi Solitary Waves in 2023, and is now producing a second, self-financed short set in Tokyo. His personal painting practice, especially the Echoes of Colorado series, has won him back-to-back Adobe Creativity Awards, and his work consistently returns to a core idea: connecting storytelling with architecture and landscape.
