The Love I Want (ongoing, Substack - led ecosystem)
Rather than launching music traditionally as a Creative Art Director, product /UX UI designer & Storyteller, I’m unfolding a memoir in real time across Substack and social platforms a living narrative system where every 100 pages connects to 10 songs, color-coded emotional chapters, and micro-films written as short scripts embedded into the story.
It works because it treats social as infrastructure, not promotion: community is built through anticipation, ritual, and continuity. It meets a post-algorithm audience craving depth, authorship, and long-form intimacy not drops. I personally love creating in this world of it's own as it played of the universe Yet Created from within. Below videos of prior releases that are not part of this system, but new material will be coming soon.
Creative & Art Direction · Story Development · Production Lead
Erosion is a One of my many audio-visual pieces created and directed by me, Anna Adonu Reynolds. I wrote the lyrics composed & produced the original version of the song, crafted the visual storytelling, and developed the full script and concept for the music video, set in Ghana at Afro Afreecanna. As Creative & Art Director, I led the production from idea to final visual, overseeing every artistic, logistical, and executional detail.
Filming took place on location in the garden at Afro Afreecanna, where I worked closely with the camera crew on lighting, visual mood, compositions, and motion direction. I contributed my own cameras and phones on set and supervised all equipment brought in by the team. Post-production was entirely hands-on I personally edited the video up to the final cut and delivered the enhanced, final version.
The production brought together a powerful team effort. Logistics for the models, makeup, styling, and on-set coordination were collaboratively handled by Cindy, Conny, the Afro Afreecanna staff and close people to my vision and me , and myself. The models were cast via @michaelssen. The Final Production was produced by renowned Ghanaian producer M.O.G, whom I acquired specifically for this project.
Erosion stands as a full-circle creative work directed, shaped, and held from concept to completion.
