Ryan Riddle is celebrating the success of his latest project, a music video he directed for the local band Los 33. The video for their song, "Luna Llena," has garnered over 2,500 views on YouTube since its completion ten months ago and has been selected for multiple film festivals.
Riddle's creative journey for the video began last year when producer Stephanie Ponce de Leon reached out to Los 33, about creating a music video. With a tight Halloween deadline, the team jumped in to create something spectacular.
The final product is a testament to the collaborative effort of everyone involved. Riddle is particularly proud of the end result, highlighting the "pace of the editing, the incredible production design, the energy from the extras, the matching costumes, the impressive makeup effects, the dramatic lighting," as well as the band's performance.
The "Luna Llena" music video has been an Official Selection at
the Shock Stock Film Festival in London, Ontario,
The Plaza Classic Film Festival in El Paso, Texas, and the
Tallgrass Film Festival in Wichita, Kansas.
Riddle expressed his excitement about the opportunity to get more "new eyes on our product" through these festivals.
"I'm just trying to make stuff," Riddle shared about his creative journey, whether it's short films, features, or music videos. He wants to "express myself and get a little bit of my crazy mind out there for the world to see," and thanks everyone who has been a part of it, from cast and crew to those who simply watch and offer emotional support
