Ephemeral love
Our Music Video of the Week is “Secret” by Shaliy. Produced by DRKT. and directed by Valerie Cappuccino Cocos.
“We narrated a tale of unique heroes whose paths intersect, leaving a lasting impact. The story, much like a road movie, pulls viewers into a journey of discovery.
We experimented with mixed media to depict our characters in an alternate California, symbolized by pink skies and purple palms, representing the peak of their ephemeral love.
More than a film, this project was an intimate experience among friends, adding authenticity despite production challenges. The unexpected rain further enhanced the film’s realism, making it more engaging.
How blissful!
