DANCING WITH SHADOWS
Winner at the 2025 Europe Music Awards and The Los Angeles Film Awards.
Made with Award Winning AI Director Arthur Machado and Paranoid Brazil.
We began
by diving into the themes of the song and gathering visual and tonal references from work we love and that connects to this emotional space.
A central metaphor emerged. A world being taken over by shadows, collapsing under emotional weight and emerging back into the light.
With that foundation we worked with the band to shape small narrative threads within that world. Generative AI gave us a way to build worlds succumbing and characters drifting between collapse and clarity.
The final film
is not a literal story or illustration to the music, but a visual translation of feeling and companion to it. While it shows individual journeys from descent to emergence, it leaves space for each viewer to bring their own interpretation, meant to be felt more than understood.
The video was covered by international music and creative outlets, featured in an interview on CNN Brazil, and awarded in international festivals.
