About
Through music she found film. Being a musician who is highly involved in the process of composing her own songs is what firstly inspired her to start making videos. There was this connection that almost always instantly clicked between sound and visual. Once she started to make her own music in search for her authentic sound, she knew she herself needed to create the corresponding visuals in order for it to be a coherent story, her story.
Maya her directing journey started only late 2020, where she directed her first video for her own musical project ‘Leave Me Alone’ together with cinematographer Zino de Groot, which got broadcasted on ‘XITE’ tv. This is where she found out she wanted to do more with concept creating and the executive operation following afterwards. Including conceptions outside of her own musical field, she is determined to focus on film for other artists as well. In search for her own personal style, she decided to collaborate with two quite dissimilar upcoming artists on creating two unified music video’s consisting out of the artist’s vision meeting hers halfway.
In recent moments she is busy finalizing new material and writing new stories.
