Descriptions:
Discover the art behind the series. Join us at SabaiChillBL for an in-depth conversation with Jeen (Prach Rojanasinwilai), the director of the hit Thai GL series ClaireBell.
In this exclusive interview, we move beyond the surface to explore the craft, intention, and socio-cultural layers of storytelling. Jeen, also known for his music videos for artists like Jeff Satur, Billkin and PP breaks down his unique visual language, the deliberate choice of a documentary-style handheld camera, and how he builds a “heightened reality” to serve a queer love story.
We discuss the often-unseen battles in TV production, including the crucial difference between the uncut and TV versions, and why the director’s final cut matters. Learn about the collaborative challenges: from composing an iconic score and working with new actors to the logistical feats of shooting 360 scenes in 29 days and the on-set secrets of improvisation, iconic blood effects, and uncooperative cats.
This is for viewers who see Girls Love series as a multi-layered art form and are curious about the cultural contexts within Thai entertainment.
