I write and direct all of my music videos. Most were done on very small budgets. 
I tend to enjoy having limitations as it results in the core idea needing to be very strong.

Music Videos:

Asking” Music Video - loveleo


Inspired by clickbait youtube conspiracy video thumbnails, the music video for asking visualizes the experince of noticing and over analyzing everything around you.

“Big Talk” Music Video - loveleo

Part of the rollout for the second single from the album, the “Big Talk” music video is an infomercial advertising obvious pyramid scheme, promising that the “Strongest Man Alive Ultimate Plan” will reshape your life and make you the perfect version of yourself. The larger rollout featured fake and real billboards, posters, and digital ads.

“Breakfast” Music Video - loveleo

The first single from the SMA album, “Breakfast” shows me working my way through the first chapters of the Strongest Man Alive self help book.
I was inspired by the opening sequence of an episode of better call saul that shows a montage split into two side by side shots.
The music video shows me becoming a modern day knight and previews later parts of the rollout as a whole.

Strongest Man Alive Visualizers - loveleo

Each track on the SMA album was accompanied by a visual.

Modern Man - loveleo

A timelapse of the strongest man alive room. I used a projector to overlay footage of the same room during the day, resulting in a second version of me.
Reminds me of the feature some video games have where you are shown a transperant version of your characters previous actions.

Please Hold - loveleo

I was on hold with my doctor and I found myself very relaxed by the hold music. I ran to my best friend christian and asked him to record the hold music.
Meant to serve as a meditation mantra, Please Hold shows me cleaning a window, which can be very theraputic.

Stronger - loveleo

Since this song is from the perspective of a dog, I wanted to have the videos perspective to feel inhuman since animals see and process light and color differently than humans.
Shown in the visualizer are bits of my morning routine filmed using a military grade thermal camera.

“Tung Tied feat. Rico Nasty” Music Video - loveleo

Focusing on maximalistic visuals, the music video for Tung Tied sees me covered in flames in a spike jacket, running down a tongue, then ending with a full transformation into half man half snake. Done in collaboration with Charolette Rutherford. 
Heavy breakdown outro that shows me swallowing a cat in one bite. 
(this clip of me swallowing the cat assassed 30+ million views, with most people saying that it is the work of the devil himself)

“Buzzcut feat. blackwinterwells” Music Video - loveleo

As the name suggests, Buzzcut is a stripped back minimal shift from the previous visuals in the loveleo project.
Shot on a white soundstage the video shows me preparing for the absurd maximalism of “Tung Tied”

“Head Over Heels” Music Video - loveleo

The feeling of being hopelessly in love wrapped up in a fever dream where my face starts to appear on everything around me.
Head Over Heels was the lead single from the EP “look at this mess ive made” released in 2020.

“Lemons” Music Video - loveleo

Lemons was supposed to be one of my biggest and most ambitious music video shoots. It was going to include an elephant, a monster truck, and pyrotechnics.
One week before shooting the quarantine began and I had to quickly pivot. I ordered hundreds of prop lemons and filmed the whole music video in my apartment.

“Rosie” Music Video - loveleo

I am kidnapped by myself, brought into the middle of the desert, then wake up to find it was all a dream
Featuring a Delorean, me as a beautiful woman, heavy handed VFX, and a poisonous snake, the Rosie music video fully incapsulates the playful and strange world presented on my first EP “look at this mess ive made”

“Boyfren” Music Video - loveleo

The first song released under the loveleo project, Boyfren was recorded in garageband in about an hour.  
The music video features me as an egg, breaking through a fake wall, and 3 clones of myself filming, doing sound, and producing the video.
The song and video went globally viral and catapulted the loveleo project into action.
