Eliza Rose 'B.O.T.A. (Baddest Of Them All)' by Jeanie Crystal
Rob Ulitski - 19th Aug 2022
Jeanie Crystal directs a vibrant promo for rising hit B.O.T.A (Baddest Of Them All).
Shot on a budget of mostly love and lip-gloss, the video shows Eliza Rose heading out to the club, hanging with friends and taking over the dancefloor.
The bold colours and unique styling exude a sense of freedom and nostalgia, whilst the spotlight on different characters in the video helps boost the profiles of local creatives.
Crystal is co-founder of queer arts collective Faboo, and this video announces their ambitions to be a leading creative force for queer artists and queer ally artists.
"This was one of the most chaotic and magical shoots of my life! Having this much energy in one space is a director's dream!" says Jeanie Crystal. "I’ve known Eliza for a long time as we used to DJ together in pubs across Hackney. She was always so supportive of my work with Faboo and was adamant I direct her first single's video.
"It’s all about community and supporting each other’s art. We exist as a whole so all the performers have a connection through collaboration and friendship and that’s what makes the success of BOTA all the more amazing. It’s a snapshot of Hackney’s underground culture that is thriving."
