Last year I got to play my first ever gig in London (had a blast) and luckily @alyabch was there that night (where she first heard this song). A few weeks later she asked me if I wanted to shoot a music video together.. obvious answer was YES ! So I went back to London and here we are: Rocket Science music video directed by the wonderful @alyabch out tomorrow 6pm

12 months since its premiere at @sunrisefilmfest “Paranoia” is wrapping up its fruitful festival run. We are so incredibly grateful to programmers, jurors and audiences of 15 festivals across UK, US, Canada and Spain for their love and appreciation of the story and our work. “Paranoia” is part of @festivalformula ‘s slate and we are forever thankful to Katy, Ian, Esther and the rest of the team for helping to spread the word about the film and making this circuit a breeze for us. Stay tuned for distribution news in the very near future. 👀 Festivals: 2025 @sunrisefilmfest Indy Shorts IFF @heartlandfilm @womenxdest @riannepictures - nominations for Best British Film, Best Director, Best Writer and Best Lead Performance @soifilmfestival @femaleeye @sjisff @evolutionmallorcafilmfestival @citylightsff (formerly TweetFest) @hollyshortslondon @neiff_official @225filmclub - Joint special mention with @swimsistasfilm 2026 @cambriafilmfestival - winner of Audience Award Late Nite Film @short.sweet.film.fest - winner of Outstanding Women In Focus Film @uptiltfilmfest @beestonfilmfestival Credits (cont in comments) A @disauthority Originals production Written and directed by Alina Bichieva @alyabch Produced by Maria Shevtsova @mariashevtsova & Marcus Hundsnes @marcushundsnes Co-produced by Zain Haris @zain__haris Starring Ella-Rae Smith ellaraesmith & Ziggy Heath Casting by Claudia Blunt, CSA @claudiabluntcasting Supporting Artists Casting by Ray Knight Casting @rayknightcasting Cinematographer: Toby Lloyd @tobyfilm Gaffer: Jakub Paczos @jakubpaczos Key Grip: Dan Moriarty @mazzartyd 1st ADs: Pól Gill @an_chead_a.d , Josie Connor @__josieconnor Production designer: Millie Suu-Kyi Holland @milliesuukyi Costume designer: Amada Piedra @amadapiedra HMU designer: Giulia Tedone @giuliatedone.mua Location sound mixer: Arlo Jones @arlojx Script supervisor: Lana Luchka @lanaluchka Intimacy coordinator: Tolu Oshodi @lupreme__ Unit still photographer: Anastasia Arsentyeva @anastasia.a.arsentyeva

Facing walls video is out nowwwwwww Cannot be grateful enough for the amazing team both in front of the camera, dancing with me and the incredible crew behind it. Music videos reaaaaally challenge us in so many ways 🤸🏽‍♀️ physically, creatively, and emotionally. But it’s the first time that I felt so confortable and had so much fun that I wanted to do it all again. I am sure @jonohine ‘s back didn’t feel the same way. < 3 Needless to say there’s no way i can understand music without movement anymore and I know this is just the very beginning of it, the rest is still to unlock.

Since Instagram decided my original post was spam, here’s a re-upload of some stills from Paranoia. The film is currently making its way through the festival circuit, and it’s been such an exciting journey so far — huge thanks to all the festivals who’ve selected it! ✨ From having a custom door built to pulling off a night shoot, this one was such a fun ride. Forever grateful for the amazing team who brought it to life.

The Furniture That Finds You for @theoldcinemalondon — Extended Cut 🌞 So excited to finally share this project we shot as a campaign for The Old Cinema — we wanted to bring in a bit of storytelling and some playful visual comedy along the way. Bit of Wes Anderson, bit of us running around West London, loads of laughs and the best team — all for some very, very good vintage furniture :) Huge thanks to everyone involved in making it happen!
