It is an exceptional experience that Nicolas Canteloup's fans are preparing for tonight on TF1. La Une will organize an exceptional number of "C Canteloup": put the faces of the people he imitates ... on the face of the imitator. Concretely, viewers will see the face of Emmanuel Macron on that of Nicolas Canteloup.
An imperfect but wanted result
"It's not quite Nicolas Canteloup, it's not quite Emmanuel Macron or Nicolas Sarkozy for example, it's a mix," says the microphone of Europe 1 Jean-Marc Dumontet, the producer of imitator. However, the result will not be perfect in the image: "There is concern that if we had the perfect double of Emmanuel Macron, 15 seconds are put on social networks [...] and he is not our goal, we want to take a lot of liberties with the information, but not to disguise it at this point, "he explains. .
A limitation therefore wanted, contrary to another: Nicolas Canteloup will not camp women. "This requires a special treatment," says the producer of the imitator that listeners in Europe 1 know well. "Nicolas is bald, and if a bald man does not shock anyone, a woman without hair can evoke the disease, and we do not want that for our female characters, but if we persevere, there will obviously be women. we find a little subterfuge, which we are looking for ".
A larger panel of characters
Another novelty in this special broadcast broadcast shortly before 21 hours, Nicolas Canteloup will be able to "appropriate" new characters. "Sometimes well-known people do not have a well-identified voice, like Antoine Griezmann for example," says the imitator. "While there, pressing with a physical envelope not quite perfect, we embark the viewers in the subject that is submitted to him". For tonight, eight characters are planned: Nicolas Sarkozy, Emmanuel Macron, Kylian Mbappé or Nikos Aliagas.
