UK-based music video director? This brief is to collaborate on a new promo with an emerging R&B artist

Talent management company [COMMISSIONER] wants to connect with a creative to make the music video for [ARTIST] new single.

It is an unreleased song from the emerging UK R&B artist.

The song is about confessing your love to someone and wanting to see them soon to reconnect and relive all the special moments they feel when together.

The song's vibe is best described as being within a sunny summer place, and they want to bathe in that warmth and feeling of being in love.
It’s a cute, light-hearted song with a catchy rhythm, and the song's message is to contact your loved ones and let them know that you want to see them soon.

The video should pay homage to this but also remain artistic and in line with [ARTIST] previous style videos. We want to incorporate VHS, camcorder and Tumblr aesthetics within the treatment/video.
