Trailer of directorial debut “After Party”, a film that I wrote about my experiences in the nightlife. Electronic music is a part of my identity so as acting and storytelling is, so making this film and composing the music helped me translate all the feelings I have about partying and substance use. ——————————————————————- Written, Produced and Directed by Vicu Bazan Szelest @vicubs Starring Yasmin Behar @yasminbehar - Vicu Bazan Szelest - Milan van Aagten @milanvanaagten Music by Vicu Bazan Szelest & Harm Koekkoek Director of Photography Harm Koekkoek @harm.koekkoekk Editor Julia Pamies Jassans @pj_juless Post Production Sound Ezound Studios @ezoundstudios 1st Director Assistant Sarah Rome @producedbyrome 2nd Director Assistant Roxane Pechot @roxanepechot 3rd Director Assistant Abby Buddingh’ @abbybuddingh Assistant Camera Arion Ritzema @arionritzel Gaffer Rick Ubink @rickubink On set sound Luuk Compeer @luukcompeer Art Director Marlena Stam @marlenastam Costume Design Viivi Valpuri @viivivalpuri Make Up Artist Daniëlle Taesma @daniellemakeupb Production Assistant Lucia Alvargonzalez @lucia_alvar Extra’s Aijens Trusins @aijenstrusins ,Daniëlle Taesma, Lucia Alvargonzalez, Julia Pamies, Maria Paz Ferro @mariapaz.ferro Lucila Carminatti @lulienelcielo , Abby Buddingh’ #techno #electronicmusic #film

Talking about how I came up with the idea of writing a musical with electronic music @xtc.electronicmusical , my background in musicals and techno and the rejections a creator faces. How rejection made me take a different road. Going into film, creating my debut short film that ended up lighting the fire of trusting and believing in myself and my creations. I applied with my project to a festival once again and this time… it was accepted at ADE and we made it happen! Thanks @fourbentcorners for the space and @spaceweathergirltv for the lovely chat!

Touring like a rockstar with @xtc.electronicmusical 🤘 I’m beyond grateful with @boringfestival @daanknijn for choosing XTC to be part of this year’s Boring program and nourishing us too with delicious meals. We had the best venue ever @schuurhaarlem thank you for the amazing hospitality and their in-house tech team really levelled up our show. Echt dankbaar! And feeling so blessed to work with my friends, not only because it’s so much fun but also because they’re so talented and professional in what they do. Love and proud of y’all. XTC was once an idea and it took life on its own and made it to Boring Festival Haarlem, one of my dream festivals. And the last photo shows how once I dreamed to be a rockstar on tour and now it became true. We’re ready to bring XTC: The Electronic Musical to the world, the sky is the limit!
