Madeleine Rose Witney 'Behind Those Eyes' by Matilda Harding-Kemp

Rob Ulitski - 4th Dec 2024

Matilda Harding-Kemp directs an evocative, gently surreal promo for ukelele-strumming jazz singer Madeline Rose Witney.

The video for Behind Those Eyes traces Madeleine's personal journey in London, where another ordinary night at a club becomes extraordinary. As she performs, the room transforms into a mirror of her inner world, revealing a strange encounter with alternate versions of herself, through a collection of memories and raw, captivating music.

Interspersed with offbeat portraits of people in the crowd - often shot in an intimate, off-kilter angle - the video highlights the challenges of making it as a female jazz musician in London; the love and fear of expression on stage and in contrast, the intimate moments of contemplation.

Shot at The Mildmay Club in North London, with a strong colour palette in the cinematography by Chaimuki and Carline Morin's grade, it's lovely work with a very appealing, introspective aesthetic.
