This is the first film production by KNEON, and right now we’re already planning to shoot the next film – longer, more narrative, bigger crew – in May. Will keep you guys updated!

I’m really stoked to introduce a Taiwanese brand, Jump From Paper, who make these incredibly cute 2D-looking bags and accessories. One is a backpack that my laptop fits into perfectly, and the other one I’m holding on the couch (forgive the smoozy posing, I do that whenever I don’t know how to pose) hugs my iPad like a love-glove. The first time I saw their bags, I remember I was in art class in high school, and a friend was showing me this spread from a magazine. I was like ‘Damn, are you sure that’s not photoshopped on?’ Three years later, I can confirm that they’re not.
Last summer, I spent an incredible week with two of my best friends in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. We saw all the touristy things, and because I was reviewing locations for KNEON, we also visited some other pretty dope clubs like Cavalli Club and Movida (you can read a range of the reviews in the 7th issue here).
This weekend, I was procrastinating like crazy but determined to be productive, so I decided to finally edit all the film clips we shot during that trip. It turned out into a bit of a dramatic music video haha, but I think it captures the week pretty well. It’s also my first proper iMovie project so excuse the bad editing! Music is Dreaming by Smallpools remixed by the Chainsmokers.
