Sunglasses, Tear Sheets, and My Process

Lots of times before music videos and photo shoots, the record label will provide a mood board or a look book with inspiration for the shoot--things the artist likes to wear, the direction we want to go.  But sometimes I am tasked with reading the treatment and then providing this inspiration.  I recently worked on a video for an artist that was country, but I wanted to give it a fashion-y twist and keep it young. Below are some of my tears and some of the things I bought for it.  Fun, huh?  Yeah, I look at magazines for a living sometimes.  Dream job.
