Laure Shang Weijie 尚雯婕 recently released her brand new album 《Graceland恩赐之地》. For the music video of her second single Love Changes Love 越爱越明白 Shang collaborated with Swedish photographer Rikkard Häggbom.
Compare to her previous single The Star, which took an a fantasy wonderland feel, this music video took a more vintage and reminiscent feel. Shang and her team traveled to various location in Northern Europe, Iceland, and Sweden to create the vintage feel needed for this black and white music video. Some colored stills from the shoot.
Laure Shang puzzles me; her music is ostensibly abstract, but she has mainstream popularity. It’s a great thing, but it’s surprising, especially if you consider most mainstream music that’s very different from what she brings.
