THE SEATURES | Jaja Vankova & Nicole Rivera

I might write an essay about this video, but it's so worth it. One of my favorite creative process of making a youtube video was on this one. We started back in September 2016, we pretty much finished this whole collaboration in less than 4 hours. One thing that was so amazing about it was that we worked so fast together. I love it. Our ideas were just flowing. The song is called Rivers arms, we were inspired by that a lot and the whole collaboration turned into a sea creatures collaboration. We have seal, octopus, star fish, sea weed.... all those creatures inspired us to make up moves in a way they move or they look. It was very challenging collaboration for me, because im not flexible but Nicole looks flawless. Besides all the struggle of being just to busy, and rainy weather that made us cancel our shoot couple times, we had to buy this huge linoleum and take it on the beach, it was extremely heavy looool. But all worth it. The sun and sand and being sick at that time made my face look all crazy, so excuse my facial expression on this one, not my best job lol ! Nicole was definitely one of the most amazing people to collaborate with, she's hard working, straight to the point, so helpful and her ideas are just incredible ! We are working on a big project together right now ! Cant wait !

[@Fif5t0014]

Dance was beautiful, but as dope as it was? All I could think about is "I WANNA BRING A SHEET OF LINOLEUM TO THE BEACH! :D" I would have never thought of that to have a "non-sandy" area of the beach!

[@wheelspinner1813]
