ALTERLIFE | MUSIC VIDEO | 4 MINS | UNITED KINGDOM | 2017 • 


Watch video here.
–

Featured on VICE, VOGUE, THE VINYL FACTORY and KALTBLUT.

Visuals used on live tour.

This project was originally commissioned for seven 10-second mini videos to accompany Rina’s debut EP. Creatively, our discussion centered around themes of reclaiming identity – specifically for Rina, who grew up in England, her Japanese heritage.

The day before production, Rina had signed with VEVO and asked if we could shoot a music video for the channel.

Listening to a pre-mixed version of Alterlife 12 hours before call time, I was immediately inspired by its energy and message.

In between photographs on set, Rina would improvise characters for each look created by the stylist, hair and make up artist.

I created mini worlds around each avatar to enhance their personalities in the edit, with references to anime, Street Fighter and 70s Japanese vinyl cover art.
