Good Vibrations is more than just a video; it’s an expression of peace, positivity, and love in its purest form. My goal with this project was to create something that resonates deeply with viewers on a spiritual level. The poets’ words are filled with a calming energy that speaks directly to the heart and soul, and I wanted the visuals to mirror that same tranquility and beauty.
The beach setting, with its natural serenity, and the poets dressed in white, represent purity and unity, bringing the message of peace and harmony to life. This project was about capturing the essence of good thoughts and positive vibrations, and I'm incredibly proud of how it all came together. I hope this video inspires viewers to embrace positivity and find their own sense of inner peace.
