Director Nina Holmgren’s latest work, “Move How You Want,” for Beats By Dre is set to Vince Staples’ track “Magic” from his newly released album. Produced by SMUGGLER for agency Translation, the film is an instinctual and movement-filled piece, crafted around the contagious energy of the one thing which moves us all--the beat.
Set in and around visually heightened worlds, the piece celebrates the diversity of an entire culture unified by music. Both playful and momentous while rooted in authenticity, the film features Staples, Naomi Osaka, Kaia Gerber and Quenlin Blackwell. True to Holmgren crafts a dramatic visual poetry with moments that capture the essence of the brand.
