KALYPTRA KERES “EMERALD POOLS” MUSIC VIDEO
Director / Animator
Official Music Video for Kalyptra Keres “Emerald Pools”
My directorial debut was made possible with the help of my amazing artistic community in Philly. To capture the explosively refreshing soundscape of “Emerald Pools”, I utilized digital and analog techniques to provide an endless catalog of textures and patterns to construct an environment that felt like it was evolving forever. By layering these elements, a maximalist landscape was created, both eclectic and organic, inviting viewers into a realm of visual exploration. Lift the veil of banal reality and submerge yourself in the surreal sensory odyssey of Emerald Pools! Follow your voice that is callin’ you here and enjoy!
