Biography Marc Miance was born in Meulan, in the suburbs of Paris. He developed an interest in computer-generated imagery (CGI) and video games at an early age. He studied at the ESRA school of cinema where he specialized in computer graphics, but dropped out after 2 years. He started to develop new techniques to create black and white CGI movies (Project BW).

In 2000, Miance co-founded Attitude Studio, a production company specialized in film animations. Attitude Studio created Eve Solal, an entirely computer-generated realistic character who was intended to star in films, TV shows, and video-games. Attitude Studio innovated by developing an "emotion mapper" for the Eve Solal character, i.e. sets of body movements for each emotion triggered to make the animation less stiff, more human-like. He sold Eve Solal to the telecom company Orange for 1 billion francs the same year that it launched, in 2000. The following year, he showcased Eve Solal to ACM's Siggraph. Still in 2005, he co-founded the production company Let'So Ya with Isabelle Miance (spouse) and Sandrine de Sacy. and closed its operations in April 2009. In 2010, Miance also created the company Alkymia specialized in computer graphics and motion-animated technologies, including a 500-gram headset to capture the facial expressions of the actors.

In 2019, Miance and Indian producer Anish Mulani launched the mobile browser Popshot.
