Direction, Concept Design, Previz

Working closely with Billie Eilish and her team, Nexus director and KAPWA founder, Robertino Zambrano, created this video to accompany her spoken word piece. The animation features dramatic sinking silhouettes and interrogates notions of body image, gender representation and objectification.

‘Not My Responsibility’ appears as a segment in Billie Eilish’s Grammy-nominated concert special, Happier Than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles, Directed by Patrick Osborne and Robert Rodriguez. Now streaming on Disney+, Happier Than Ever’ was produced by Nexus Studios with Interscope Films.

Under Nexus leadership, and under the direction of Zambrano, KAPWA led the design, concept development and previsualisation for the music video, working with the team at Mighty Nice in Sydney to execute the final film.
