TikTok Star Emilio Bernot Is Also a Talented Emerging Music Video Director
The rise of the social media video platform TikTok has given way to millions of young users, mostly Generation Z, to participate intimately in pop culture and to express their identities and opinions fully.
For users, TikTok is simple to use, create, and share content with, from recording lip-syncs, dance challenges, and other viral trends, and yet still challenging enough to keep them interested for a long time. Because of the video constraints of the platform being fifteen seconds, content creators are forced to get creative to make an impact within the short timeframe.
It is no surprise that people who are inclined to creating and editing videos, like Emilio Bernot, are drawn to TikTok.
As young as 14 years old, Emilio has already been doing little skits and posted them on his Instagram, though they have never really gained any traction before. Not easily discouraged, Emilio went on and continued filming himself doing random and hilarious things. It was not until October 2019 when he downloaded TikTok that he discovered that excellent, relatable content will always attract the right audience.
Apart from making videos of himself, Emilio has been directing and editing music videos for others as well. Emilio has worked for artists like Paul Wall, Fredo Bang, and Slim Thug, and is now looking for more.
Emilio quickly fell in love with creating and editing videos, though it was not his initial interest. When he was 15 years old, Emilio’s mother sent him to a school called Fusion Academy and placed him in a photography class. After a few weeks, Emilio developed an interest in the class because he found it amazing how one can make bright places look dark and mysterious.
In the same year, Emilio’s friend acquired a camera and wanted to take photoshoots with local influencers. One day, Emilio and his friend got to work for a rapper with the stage name Scotty Mcthottie. In the project’s group chat, Scotty later confessed to Emilio that he did not want just a photoshoot but a music video as well.
While Emilio had a little bit of prior experience with creating and editing videos, as well as working with eye movie, he was not sure if he could make Scotty his music video. In the next week, however, Emilio said yes to Scotty’s request and realized how much fun he had in the process of making the music video.
Since then, after his first experience, Emilio fell in love with video-making and decided to pursue it as his passion.
Currently, Emilio is among the famous rising TikTok stars with a platform of around 900,000 followers. With his charming personality and good fashion style, Emilio can easily brighten up anyone’s day with his good-natured humor and well-crafted content.
To this day, Emilio still spends hours each day thinking of new ideas to do and new creative ways of making videos. Through TikTok and music videos, Emilio can explore and hone his craft more until he could reach his full potential.
For Emilio, nothing is more rewarding than seeing people liking and enjoying each content he posts, and helping artists bring to life the music videos that they envisioned.
