Project: Video – “Zoektocht naar de Stadsdichter”
Client: Bibliotheek Zuid-Kennemerland
For this campaign promoting the search for a new city poet, I was asked to create a video that would capture the power of language and the connective role of poetry in the city. As a former employee of the library, I knew the tone, mission and internal dynamics well - which helped shape the message into something both true to the organization and impactful for the public.
I developed the full concept and was responsible for directing, filming and editing the video. One of the biggest challenges was casting a diverse range of people who could authentically represent the voices of the city. This took time, but the result was worth it.
The video was widely shared and resonated deeply - helping to give the campaign visibility and soul. I’m very proud of the result and the way it brought people together through poetry and representation.
