Most of my time is dedicated to Julia Camino Agency.
→ Here's an interview if you want to know more about my vision. Currently working on:
● the production and release plan of Garance Midi first LP;
● music videos that you will see in 2024.
I'd also like to be at the forefront of healthier practices with campaigns and practical tools to take care of mental health problems in the music sector.
On the podcast side of life, no new episodes of ATM at the moment but a comeback for Amour, Gloire & Chips with monthly episodes and that's very exciting!

Oh oh, change of plan for my delusional writing fantasy: I now have a newsletter.


2022

I was invited to write one of Damien's Petite Lettre while he was on vacation. You can find it here if you were not subscribed yet.

First behind the scene blog on my Ko-fi page: In the studio with Annabel Lee.

I started a Ko-fi page on which I intend to regularly post a monthly curation with recommendations for readings, films, music... and blogs on various creative subjects, in English !

We alternatively curate a playlist with Damien called SOSAD for « Selected: One Song A Day ». It comes with a short anecdote written daily by one of us (in English this time).

I wrote a few words (in FR and EN) about the making of More (official video) by It It Anita.

When the lockdown started two of my friends initiated the project Li(b)re – online sessions during which people read aloud. Sometimes during specials, you can read personal texts. The text « Un caillou dans la chaussure de ma psy » was written for one of those sessions.

09
Here are a few words (in FR and in EN) about the making of the mixtape NAAR SUYU #1.

08
The text « 353,70 la coupe » was the first one I wrote for the Li(b)re à toi sessions. As the other one here above, I think we could say that it somehow comes close to a kind of autofiction mini novel.

When I travel I love to take analog pictures and write post cards. Here is a recollection of those remembrances.

Here a small selection of articles I wrote for the webzine « Causes Toujours » : (1) To care or not to care, (2) De l’autre côté des barbelés, (3) Zawya, changer de perspective.

I've been a writer and then editor-in-chief of the Drash mag for two years. It's a magazine about skate culture in its broadest sense, from Brussels to all Belgium.


You can hire me for some copy work, ghostwriting, or if you need an article on socio-cultural topics.

I created Ghosts in the Playlist wich is part of a bigger curation article on ghosts in music, litterature and movies. I'm still open to suggestions to update this playlist. The ghost can be in the name of the song, the artist, album, lyrics and one's own interpretation.

06
At this Moment podcast is on for a second season this Summer. Here you even have a playlist where each episode is followed by the track we talked about. At this Moment is a talk about music and more specifically about this moment in a song that makes your brain explode.
+ Episodes 14 and 18 are in English.

I started curating a new playlist for our agency, Julia Camino. Supposedly updated every month. No particular direction except the joy to build it and share songs ;)

Website was momentarily hacked, might be back someday. (But probably not. We'll move on to the next idea.)

I joined Damien to co-host Amour, Gloire & Chips. You can listen to it on all platforms. Among our guests in this conversational podcast: Virginie Nguyen Hoang (photo-reporter), Lisette Lombé (poet), Alex Stevens (music festival curator), Bwanga Pilipili (actress), Rosine Mbakam (film director), Daphné Huynh (comedian) & more.

Remember this running joke I've been doing for years now that « yeah I'll soon be releasing my first mixtape called NAAR SUYU » ?! Well, that's done now. It was even broadcasted on The Word Radio and here are a few words about it.

We're launching a new type of event with live podcast recordings, side-splitting stand-up comedy, and delightful concerts all under one roof. Our own metaverse, really. It's called « Soirée Triplette » and, with Damien, we took care of the design (of course).

For Annabel Lee's new LP Drift I was in charge of the art direction of the release, including the making of this full album video and several other assets that you can find on Spotify or social media. Loved doing that !

After several attempts to make a video for High Anxiety, it was time to face the fact that fiction is not my strong suit and readjust towards a more documentary form. I asked all the friends present at the show to shoot the song with their phones and added footage from the band's life around concerts. It conveys the stamina of Annabel Lee's live performances.

I went to the very last detail when creating the Ghosts in the Playlist for my article on ghosts and shoot this cool picture for the cover.

Royal Snack is a scene that did not make the final cut of the documentary Tramadol but as there is a particular atmosphere in this pause that Moussa takes during his long journey, Morgane allowed me to make an independent sequence out of it.

After a challenging and stimulating time on the edit of the documentary feature Tramadol, I designed the poster and some of the visuals.

To help us book Annabel Lee (a band we manage with Julia Camino) we needed a good live video. I teamed up with Alex and Adrien to shoot their concert at Botanique last October, then did the editing and Mathieu took care of the sound.

Crafting At this Moment podcast from A to Z also means coming up with a visual identity. I'm glad Damien always finds a way to translate my ideas.

I went to Tunis to edit Morgane Wirtz’s next documentary, Tramadol. End of 2022, it started its life on screen in international film festivals such as: African Film Festival New York, Millenium, JCC Carthage Film Festival, Montreal International Black Film Festival & more.

It It Anita released a new album. This is the result of saying « yes » to « let’s shoot a music video due in 2 weeks with no money » : More (official video). And here, a few words (in FR and EN) about how we made it happen.

While we're all participating in a worldwide pandemic, it took ages to hear a single word from politicians about culture. That's why I decided to edit footages from a concert of Bengal (a grrrl-post-punk band I manage), removing the sound.

03
I joined Bengal with my camera when they hit the studio to record their first LP shiv. The studio report crafted with that footage became the music video of the track You're Dead.

For five years I've been (post)prod director at GSARA working with a dream team to provide support to young cinematographers crafting documentary films. One of the last projects was the movie Teghadez Agadez by my good friend Morgane Wirtz. Even did the trailer on this one.

Our desire with Jordi Morató to resume to a more personal approach of filmmaking brought us to the Correspondencia project where we sent each other video postcards.
