Selenas bedroom. Designed to capture a creatively driven and multifaceted mindset, the set features a variety of props—sketches, paintings, easels, crochet tools, cameras, and more—to evoke a lived-in feel. The furniture was thoughtfully chosen to reflect her state of mind and harmonize with the space.

Furniture and prop curation by us, from Neef Louis Design. Art from archival collection by Peter Klashorst. Sketches by Ren Takagi. 
We deliberately used vibrant colors in the art to create a stark contrast with the white bed sheets, which symbolize clarity and tranquility. The white sheets represent a sanctuary for Selena, a place she returns to after moments of turmoil.
Officially selected for the Netherlands Film Festival, 2024. Apart of the ‘(Self)Love’ program. 
Official trailer for ‘scherven van de zon’ (2024).
Set at Garage Noord, Amsterdam. 
Included over 40 extras on set, all of whom required styling and makeup for the scene. The extras were designed to embody a grunge/rave aesthetic, reflecting the typical clubgoer, while also maintaining realism by ensuring each individual had a sense of uniqueness.

Make up and hair by Alina Setfan, Lykke Lotus, Elis., Tina., Sarah Camphuysen. Costume dressing by Ganoen., Yuki.
Club logo design for ‘scherven van de zon’ (2024).

The club's logo and name were prominently displayed throughout the space to enhance the authentic recreation of the club. The goal was to keep the design minimal and realistic, drawing inspiration from patterns seen in other local clubs. 

Designed by myself. 
The scene where Selena and Cass meet and share a connection was designed to reflect an outside club setting. We maintained the same aesthetic as the club while minimizing background noise to focus on the characters. 

The emphasis was on highlighting their interaction and connection.
For continuity, the makeup was progressively intensified to reflect a full night of partying. We aimed to replicate how Selena might apply her makeup initially, while also showing how it would appear after a night out.
