The music video for "Moonlight" by Swuncle & Cozydeno tells the story of a drug dealer who, after being robbed in a deal gone wrong, confronts his internal demons. The visual narrative captures the struggle between his weaker self and a darker, stronger alter ego, as he grapples with feelings of rage, regret, and a desire to break free. The dark, moody lighting and intense close-ups emphasize the emotional tension, while the cinematic shots portray the duality of his character. The video dives deep into themes of inner conflict and self-destruction, symbolized by the character's metaphorical battle to suppress his vulnerability.

As the Editor and Grip on the "Moonlight" project, I played a crucial role in shaping both the visual flow and the on-set execution. In my capacity as Editor, I worked closely with the director to craft a narrative that heightened the tension and emotional depth of the story, carefully selecting shots and transitions to convey the character’s internal battle. As Grip, I was responsible for ensuring the smooth operation of the production equipment, contributing to the lighting setup that reinforced the video’s dark, moody atmosphere. Both roles allowed me to support the team in delivering a powerful and visually engaging music video.
