Les Tontons Truqueurs

Les Tontons Truqueurs (often abbreviated LTT) is a French visual effects (VFX) and virtual production studio based in Vendargues, near Montpellier in the south of France. The company operates from the Vendargues Studios and La Fabrique facilities, where it works across 16,000 square metres of studio space. Its activity spans the full production chain, from on-set shooting through post-production to television and cinema delivery. LTT positions itself around virtual production, offering services on both green screen and LED volume stages. The studio describes its approach as democratising technology to make VFX accessible to a wider range of productions, combining quality, craft and passion. It argues that virtual production offers an economic and ecological alternative to traditional shooting methods, while delivering image quality that is similar to or better than real-world conditions, and that its real-time workflow and proprietary tools reduce production times and broaden access to special effects. The Vendargues site is equipped with four stages of 1,100 square metres each, along with carpentry and painting workshops, prop storage, dressing rooms, production offices, hair and make-up rooms, and backlots. LTT also runs a dedicated virtual production laboratory called V Studios, which is used on the daily series Un Si Grand Soleil and allows the team to optimise its workflows on a daily basis. The studio serves producers and directors, adapting its expertise and technology to each project, whether shot on green screen or using an LED volume. Its client-facing offer covers all types of productions, from series and television to cinema. The company is based at 1090 avenue de Bigos in Vendargues.
