David Keenan’s “Peter O’Toole’s Drinking Stories”

London, UK

2021

Creative Producer

Commissioned by Rubyworks Records, Peter O’Toole’s Drinking Stories is the official music video for Irish artist David Keenan, translating the track’s raw lyricism into a dreamlike journey through Barcelona.

I contributed towards shaping the visual language and narrative tone while leading production from pre-production through to final delivery, working closely with the directors across cinematography, performance and experimental effects.

Alongside the film, we created a complementary press photoshoot to extend its visual world beyond the screen. The video went on to receive selections at international film festivals, including Cinemagic Young Filmmaker 2021 and Festival RNAB 2022.
