Luna Shadows has delivered yet another breathtaking visual accompanyment to her music - the video for 'little rituals' is beautiful, colourful, enchanting, joyous and also poignant. The film was directed, produced and co-edited by Shadows herself, alongside a team of LA based creatives in the mountains of Topanga in California. “This was my first video shot on film (16mm), which was both exciting and challenging,” says Shadows. “When dealing with film, you do not have infinite takes, so you need to have a plan - especially when you are both director and subject. I did not grow up with much formal dance training, and I do not consider myself a very competent dancer - but I love to dance, and I could not imagine this video without joyous movement. So I took a lot of dance classes and rehearsed the choreography for several months with my dance instructor/choreographer (Cati Jean).”
