HousePlants - Swimming Pool (Youth Music Video Competition 2024 winner)

Описание: We're delighted to have our song, "Swimming Pool," featured in this year's Youth Music Video Competition (YMVC), Ireland’s unique mentorship programme for emerging directors aged 18-25. Each year, YMVC selects ten talented young filmmakers to create music videos for some of Ireland's most exciting up-and-coming artists.

The programme offers filmmakers professional guidance, mirroring the complete creative process a professional director undertakes when producing a music video. We had the pleasure of working with the amazing director Meghan O'Shaughnessy, who took an incredible concept and turned it into something truly special. Meghan also won the award for Best Music Video at the competition! You can view the video on our YouTube channel now.

We're thrilled to be a part of this wonderful initiative supporting Ireland's next generation of filmmaking talent.
