PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In 2015, The Compulsive spent extensive time in Zanzibar. While there, we were drawn to the island’s music and decided to connect with both local and visiting artists to create a series of live performances.

The concept was simple. One take. 100% live. As many cameras as we could manage. We called the project The Stone Town Sessions.

Working with 2 – 6 cameras, and a range of guest cinematographers, we chose locations that complimented the various artists and showed off different parts of Zanzibar. The resulting films profiled different musicians and highlighted the ancient beauty of Zanzibar.
