This week on YDA CHATS… Karim chats to the director/photographer duo WE ARE FROM LA, who won a Gold and a Silver Screen at YDA 2012. They have since gone on to win Best Music Video at the Grammys for Pharrell Williams’s ‘Happy’, and direct work for some of the biggest brands in the world.
Here they talk to Karim about their influences, and their career pre- and post-YDA 2012.
