BEHIND THE SCENES
This project was one of the most challenging in 2023. The shooting schedules clashed with other projects, and we had to create the set from scratch within two days over the weekend. Additionally, I had to remotely manage the team of decorators while being on other shoots. For this music video, we built a platform measuring 2.5 by 2.5 meters, stylized as a stone symbol on the floor, adorned with chains and shackles, and transformed an old church into an abandoned fantasy sanctuary. We also made a miniature version of the symbol for close-up shots.
