The up-and-coming artist, Christinna O, a talented R&B songstress and writer, was looking to introduce the next phase of her artistry to her fanbase and needed a breakthrough visual that would embody the sultry, moody soundscape her music has taken on. In collaboration with the artist and my producer, I wrote the treatment, coproduced, and directed her music video debut for her single "Again".
Serving as my own directorial debut, this project spanned several months, was independently funded, and brought together an incredible team of collaborators (majority POC!), all pouring their expertise into making this vision a reality.
