On Tour with Drake Through the Lens of Toosie Slide Director Theo Skudra
Ойын-сауық
enroute.aircanada.com/en/arti...
We caught up with Toronto native Theo Skudra to talk about the nostalgia of shooting on film, the realities of tour life and how he gets the perfect shots of Champagne Papi. Skudra has directed videos for Drake including "When to Say When & Chicago Freestyle," "What's Next" and "Money in the Grave" feat. Rick Ross. His artistic relationship with Drake began by chance when he took a photograph on the set of a music video shoot which ended up being used as the cover art for Take Care single "Trust Issues." Since then, he's traveled with Drake and his crew on multiple world tours and his distinctive black-and-white style can be seen across Drake's social media presence.

Drake en tournée, dans l’oeil du réalisateur Theo Skudra
Nous avons rencontré le torontois Theo Skudra pour parler de la nostalgie du tournage, des réalités de la vie en tournée et de la façon dont il obtient les clichés parfaits de Champagne Papi. Skudra a réalisé des vidéos pour Drake, dont "When to Say When & Chicago Freestyle", "War" et "Money in the Grave" feat. Rick Ross. Sa relation artistique avec Drake a commencé par hasard lorsqu'il a pris une photo sur le tournage d'un clip vidéo qui a fini par être utilisé comme couverture du single Take Care "Trust Issues". Depuis lors, il a voyagé avec Drake et son équipe lors de plusieurs tournées mondiales et son style noir et blanc distinctif peut être vu à travers la présence de Drake sur les réseaux sociaux.

He’s hints at it every now and then. I remember him saying in an interview that they have been documenting his life for the past couple of years (I’m assuming by Theo) It’ll probably come out when he decides to call it quits or take a backseat. 5-10 years from now It’s gonna be some long ass 10 part special. Like the Michael Jordan doc.

7:55 - 8:01 is an amazing shot. Theo Skudra is the future of cinematography in music. He's gonna change the way this decade watches music videos. Absolutely brilliant as well when talking about the details of his shots.

Amazing how it took looking back to go forward, with his style consisting of documentary esque film capturing.
Im appalled that this has less than 1 millions views. This is GREAT! This Is CREATIVITY! This is ART!
I didn't know he took all those beautiful shots like the VIEWS and More Life trailer. This guy is legendary based off of those works.
