davodka • sama
"Sama" is used in addressing persons higher in rank than oneself
French rap artist Davodka approached us to work on a 2D animated music video for the track “Sama” of his new album “A juste titre”. The first idea was to create a visual exploration that tells Davodka’s journey as an artist, always fighting to move forward, overcoming the critics, his relationship to others artists and his hard earned successes. We immediately fell for the idea to bring a dystopian world to life, bathing in a retro-futuristic style, referencing and celebrating the Japan's eclectic and beautiful culture.
