From Singapore with Words

2024

Client: Singapore Books Publishers Association
Agency: Currency Design
A series of “day-in-the-life” videos were produced for the Singapore Pavilion at the 2024 Frankfurt Book Fair. I was tasked with capturing the featured authors in their natural environments—shadowing them through daily routines to document raw, personal moments that offered an intimate glimpse into their creative lives.

Beyond filming and editing, I collaborated with senior designers to adapt the pavilion’s branding into motion, translating its visual identity into a cohesive video series that felt both editorial and human.
