The brief.
Make a music video that lives or dies on craft rather than budget spectacle: a controlled studio environment that still feels cinematic, gives the artist a commanding stage, and carries a narrative charge without leaning on location or scale.
The approach.
- 01
Designed the whole film around a studio cyclorama and hard, motivated lighting, treating colour and shadow as the set so every frame reads deliberate rather than incidental.
- 02
Directed the performance for presence: full-body confidence, tight close-ups, and framing that makes the artist the undisputed centre of the world.
- 03
Threaded a darker, surreal narrative undercurrent through the performance beats, so the video has something to say beyond the song.
- 04
Graded for contrast and mood, deep blues against clean skin tones, to hold a consistent, ownable look from first frame to last.
The result.
A film Nataka directed and produced end to end in Nairobi, built to sit alongside international music video work. It is ahead of release, so get in touch to see the full cut.
