Drop

From the driving bass line to the energetic drum break, DROP is definitely a call to dance! The afrobeat vibe is heavily felt, and Steve’s cadence and vocal harmonies add a unique touch to bring the song to life. This song is a reminder to live free, and to DROP everything in life that weighs us down…

Prado - STEPHEN

I love fast cars - they symbolize power, dominance, and importance. There’s something incredible about being a woman in a fast car...the power, respect, independence.” Benita and I were generously awarded this grant way back in January 2020, though RBCxMusic's Prism MVP Project. After the pandemic initially put a hold on things, we had to rewrite the original idea in light of new health and safety precautions…

Takis- Wait For Me

Working on a limited schedule with your friends reminds me of why I started working as a cinematographer. It makes you think creatively. I remember sitting in a coffee shop last year with Director Justin and Producer Bella when the concept came full circle - more importantly, Justin’s unwavering, immovable decision to shoot this in the desert. All the moments proved to be worth it…

JAW-ARD is a dive into the world of darkness, delivered through Molotof's music and shabjdeed's lyrics. Through a low key almost noir look, the visual emphasizes this state of desolation/loneliness/agitation and is also a caution to something that may happen…

Maejor - X (432 Hz)

I was visiting LA on the occasion of Cinemoi Network’s Film Festival where my film was nominated for Best Cinematography. I was keen to shoot something while in town and luckily my manager introduced us to Maejor. He was keen to do something which we thought was going to be for his Instagram… At the moment it is over 600k as his official video on youtube in 6 days! We set up the shoot through Whats App, bouncing back ideas and dates to promote his brand new song…

Tempête (Storm) tackles themes of survival and tenacity in the most difficult of times, having myself overcome depression and addiction. The song is rampant with rhythmic flows reminiscent of grime, on a very dynamic instrumental produced by A Milwaukee based producer who goes by the name of 1v…

For the Taking

Set in a world where human beings have become imprisoned by technology and categorized by colour, four unique colour codes use the power of a sacred dance to resist the powerful trance and fight to regain control of their oppressed minds. As they recite the motions, they are individually transported — through a miniature greenhouse portal — from their recluse warehouse into diverse exterior locations where they can finally be free to express themselves… We return to the warehouse to see them still entrapped by the bright, blinding light of their screens, which compels us to question whether they are truly free or if the escape was an odyssey spent entirely in the prison of their own minds…

Bet On Me

I had been a fan of Suboi's music for the past few years and a mutual friend of ours, producer Tiffany Chang, asked if I was interested in writing a treatment for the track Bet On Me. I listened to the song, fell in love with it, and immediately started putting together a proposal. Suboi wanted two things: for the film to start in the city and transition into nature, and for the story to center on her transition into motherhood…

Saro - "Nothing Remains"

I’ve worked with the artist Saro on a few previous videos, and we have a really creative and collaborative relationship. In prepping the project we wanted the video to embody the healing properties of music and how it can serve as an escape from reality. The feeling that music can make it feel like the whole world freezes for a moment…

Heavy

Toronto-based hip-hop/dancehall artist Pages approached us for a unique music video concept for his single, Heavy. The track had an aggressive, rebellious vibe, so we’ve decided to let some skillful dancers express how they’ve felt about the song on camera. We’ve decided to mix some Krump, popping and voguing to capture a unique vibe. We chose very busy locations to capture the energy as well…

Go and Get It

Go and Get It is a vibrant hustler’s anthem with a series of multicolored dioramas representing each artist’s personality. Playing around with cartoonish indicators of wealth, like oversized and customized money and hustling while making phone calls, it represents the artists’ creativity, drive, and ambition as well as the joy of DIY and art without compromise.

Please

The concept for the video was inspired by the lack of privacy in our digital lives and how we so easily get lost in a labyrinth of the persona we create. In the visual, we follow Saro through a strange, shifting maze full of obscured figures and gazes that follow his every move, though in the end it’s all a creation of his own projection…
