This dark fantasy short reimagines the origin of the first vampire — not as a creature born from evil, but as a woman forged by betrayal and fear.
Told through atmospheric narration and cinematic pacing, the story follows Elara, a young woman condemned by her village during a time of plague. Left to die beneath a blood moon, she is offered a choice by an ancient presence in the forest: death… or hunger.
Blending mythic horror, emotional depth, and poetic storytelling, this piece explores themes of scapegoating, survival, transformation, and the loneliness of immortality.
Take a vampire, a grim reaper and a bat for a midnight ride through a haunted town. Hold to boost over broken track, brake before the big hills, and grab candy to refill your boost. Push your luck too far and your passengers end up splattered across the screen.
adidas x Entire Studios FW26: Editorial Launch Video
I partnered with Entire Studios to create an editorial video for the launch of its FW26 collection with adidas. The brief was to introduce the collection; I made it a video essay instead of a product ad. It argues that code-switching, and the way 2020 merged work, gym, and home into one room, make a case for a wardrobe that blends sportswear and tailoring.
