Ena Mori has officially become the first-ever artist to shoot a music video using the Rayban Meta Smart Glasses.
She teamed up with tech start-up Tony & using RayBan’s new line of smart glasses created in collaboration with social media giant Meta. Ray-Ban recently inked a partnership with tech giant Meta to produce a smart glasses line, which integrates livestream and AI technology. The glasses allow for direct livestreaming to Instagram and Facebook. The glasses boast of an ultra-wide 12 megapixel camera and can take 1080p videos for up to 60 seconds. It also includes a built in AI assistant, voice command, touch control, as well as a 36 hour charging case. Additionally, the glasses feature a custom-built speaker and five microphones with “immersive audio recording.”
The music video was livestreamed to Ena Mori’s Instagram and Facebook accounts, with the video feed shot from her point of view. Selected press and guests were invited to watch the making of the music video last night (March 5) at the Modeka Creative Space in Makati. The music video featured backup dancers (dressed as Ena) and a choreography sequence that included blowing out a birthday cake, an explosion of balloons, and large-scale metal flowers.
Offshore Music General Manager Audry Dionisio shared that the music video has been in the works for the past four months. The full music video as well as the single will be made available everywhere on March 15.
“Heartache Generation” is Ena Mori’s first standalone release since her critically-acclaimed and award-winning debut album, DON’T BLAME THE WILD ONE! Last year, she went home with the Awit Award for Album of the Year. She was also a featured Discover artist in the inaugural issue of Billboard Philippines. In an exclusive interview, she shared that, “When I started making music, it was for me to discover who I am as an artist. I wasn’t quite sure of what I was doing when I first started. It was just me figuring [everything] out.”
