Did you watch TRL and VH1 back in the day and know directing videos was your calling?
"I definitely was an MTV baby, but it wasn't until college when I figured out I wanted to be in film and videos. I started in photography as a kid, and when I got to NYU I just thought it was a natural progression and a way for me to speak to the world. With music videos, I felt like I could be extremely experimental with my art and have fun at the same time. I just love them."

Melina greeted us in a Maison Martin Margiela necklace, Alexander Wang top, Acne skirt, Visvim jacket, vintage fur collar, and Christian Louboutin shoes.
