Sylvain Dos Santos

Sylvain Dos Santos is an author and producer born in Arcachon in 1979.

He started his career in advertising as a copywriter, but he soon decided to dedicate his working life to his passion and become a children's TV scriptwriter. Going with the idea that if you want something done, you should just do it yourself, he founded I Can Fly, his very own production business assigned to getting his projects from page to screen.

He had his first success in 2010 with Baskup, a basketball series produced with Disney XD and sold in over 40 countries.

In the years that followed, he piloted at I Can Fly the season 2 of Baskup and also developed several other projects, one of which was Turboten, a comic book produced in collaboration with Jo Tsonga. It was around this time that the Golam project came into being, with publisher Le Lombard (Europe Comics in English).

In 2014 Sylvain signed for a new cartoon series with TF1, Marblegen, with Monello Production. He also established the kids rugby license Ovalon, which later evolved into comic book format with Le Lombard.

The year 2015 was another busy one for his projects as not only were Golam and Ovalon released with Le Lombard, but Sylvain took on the scripting for a manga project with Kana, as well as developing a new cartoon project with Disney.
