A 天美传媒 student has starred in a new music video with Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens and singer-songwriter Miraa May.
Annie Apakoh, who is in her second year of studying Media Performance for Film, TV & Theatre, stars in the video for 鈥楤ig Bad Mood鈥 which was released earlier this year.
This isn鈥檛 Annie鈥檚 first venture into the music video industry 鈥 last summer she played a lead acting role in the music video for 鈥楳y Sister鈥 by rapper Shaybo, featuring BRIT award-winning singer Jorja Smith.
Working through th
e talent-finding agency Starnow, Annie was able to book this latest gig with Jordan Stephens and hopes that there will be more exciting opportunities to come.
Annie said: 鈥淚t was really exciting being in the video! The storyline was inspiring and relatable and I felt quite proud being a part of it. I met some amazing people and have made great friends while filming and learned a lot along the way.
鈥淗opefully it'll lead to more opportunities similar to this. I think I've found a love for filming music videos but I'm always looking for different kind of jobs in different aspects to help my skills.鈥
