During one of the modules at Hyper Island, I spent four weeks with the Swedish krautrock band Les Big Byrd. I went backstage at gigs, documented "behind the scenes" at interviews for TV and radio and hung out in their studio. This resulted in a short documentary: Escape from reality, about the struggles of getting older in a business where the norm is to be young. 

​

The photos I took backstage were posted to the bands official Instagram and my footage was used to promote the band on Spotify's Instagram as well. 

​

My role in the project included:

- Photography + editing 

- Filming

- Storytelling

- Art direction

- Interviewer 

- Concept development

- Planning

- Directing
