Charli XCX has announced a new documentary about the making of her quarantine album how i’m feeling now, as Variety reports. The film is called 6ft Apart and it was directed by Bradley&Pablo, known for making music videos for Harry Styles, Rosalía, and other artists. The doc was shot concurrently with the production of the album, between April 6 and May 14. A release date has yet to be announced.
“It felt only natural to document myself making this album,” Charli told Variety of the film. “I don’t think I’ve ever made music in such a unique situation: being so logistically far apart from my collaborators, but going through exactly the same thing, writing songs about my relationship with my boyfriend sitting in the next room, and being so connected to my fans in such an intense and creative way, it felt quite overwhelming and heartwarming all at the same time. So I wanted to film it all. Why not add to the pressure of making an extremely personal album within a five-week timeline by putting a load of cameras in my face and zooming in on my personality and insecurities too??! You know???”
how i’m feeling now followed Charli’s 2019 self-titled album. Read the 2019 Cover Story, “Charli XCX Is the Pop Star of the Future.”
