In a chat with Ochuko Lagos
– how do you put up your ideas together before having to direct a film or edit?
Ochuko Lagos; I draw inspiration from so many things, from my own personal experiences to watching a lot of films to even just listening to the song. A lot of the time, it’s just based on vibes. Artists usually come with briefs that are rather interesting, like wanting to fly in their music videos. Being able to really pay attention to the client’s needs and be in line with their brand is very key.
Ochuko lagos as been behind the edit as an online and offline editor of some of the most amazing music video works in the Nigerian entertainment space such as:
‘MANDEMAN’ by Small doctor ft Davido, ‘SO LOVELY’ by Buju, ‘YOUR BODY’ by Mayorkun, ‘LOGOS ANTHEM’ by Zlatan and many more…
Lastly when Ochuko Lagos was asked what he thinks about the state of music videos in Nigeria today and their progression?
Ochuko Lagos: I think it’s so amazing. We’ve grown so much and are still growing. This new generation of creatives is much more diverse in its ideas. I wish we had more freedom to create. Some record labels and artists aren’t.
