ANNA releases short film, 'Journey Into Intentions', to accompany new album: Watch
It's narrated and soundtracked by ANNA herself
ANNA has followed up her album 'Intentions' with the unveiling of a new short film called 'Journey Into Intentions'.
The visual, mostly shot at her home and studio in Lisbon by director João Marques, features narration from ANNA and is also soundtracked by her music. It focuses on her personal journey into exploring spirituality which informed her recent ambient material and the sound of her just-released album.
Speaking about the film, ANNA said: "When we initially considered creating a mini-documentary for the album, I had concerns about finding someone who could truly grasp the message of the album and effectively collaborate with it. I wanted to preserve the essence of Intentions and convey a meaningful message.
"That's when I was introduced to João, we scheduled a meeting for the next day in my studio. Right from the start, we had an instant connection, as we had gone through similar experiences. This connection remained strong throughout the entire process of crafting the documentary. Many times I went to João with an idea and we were surprised to find out he was gonna suggest the same thing.
"João not only grasped the album's message perfectly but also had a beautiful way of expressing it through his imagery and art. For the soundtrack, I exclusively used the stems from the album. Witnessing the music and visuals intertwine to amplify the message of Intentions has been magical."
