The Promonews Podcast - Ali Kurr

We talk to director Ali Kurr on what she’s learned from 10 years of making music videos, her rules on working with new artists, on winning pitches, not having a definable directing style, making a porn film - yes, really - and finding success through her longterm collaboration with singer Rina Sawayama, which recently reached new heights with the videos for This Hell and Hold The Girl.
