🎙 About the Artist Jessa Sky is a Métis Cree singer-songwriter whose music blends soulful vocals with contemporary R&B, acoustic storytelling, and emotional honesty. Known for writing from lived experience, she’s built a reputation for crafting deeply personal songs that speak to mental health, healing, and identity. Her presence is calm yet powerful, drawing listeners into the emotional center of every performance. 🎵 About the Song — “Grievin’” “Grievin” is an intimate reflection on loss — not just the loss of people, but the loss of versions of ourselves. The track explores: The quiet moments of heartbreak The weight of unspoken emotions The slow, personal process of healing Musically, the song leans into warm R&B tones, subtle acoustic elements, and expressive vocal phrasing. The live session highlights the rawness of the lyrics, allowing the performance to feel close, honest, and unfiltered. 🎥 Production Approach The session was designed to create a cinematic yet minimal environment that supports the emotional tone of the song. Cinematography: Multi-camera setup focusing on intimate framing Slow, intentional movements to enhance emotional pacing Soft lighting to create depth and subtle warmth Audio: Clean vocal capture with a focus on clarity and resonance Mixed and mastered for a natural, studio-quality sound Color & Edit: Warm, natural color grade Cuts timed to emotional beats rather than strict rhythm Visual emphasis on expression, breath, and performance energy 🎛 Production Credits — X Unreel Sessions Director/ Producer: DIRXECP Cinematography: Eric Peters Camera Operators: Eric Peters Lighting Design: Matthew Merkel Editing: DIRXECP Color Grading: DIRXECP BTS/ Photography: Matthew Merkel 📣 Support Jessa Sky Stay connected with upcoming releases @jessaskyy 🔔 Stay Connected with X Unreel Sessions Subscribe for more cinematic live performances Drop a comment to support the artist Share to help independent talent reach new audiences 🎬 Production by DIRXECP Winnipeg Video Production • Drone Services • Music Videos • Commercial Content 🌐 Website: https://www.dirxecp.com 📩 Book a Project: https://www.dirxecp.com/contact 📸 Real Estate Photo + Video: https://www.dirxecp.com/realestate 🚁 Drone Services: https://www.dirxecp.com/winnipegdrone 🎛 Unreel Sessions: https://www.dirxecp.com/unreelsessions

This music video for "Auror" was one of the last projects we worked on with Caid Jones (Cayden Carfrae) before his passing. Shot in both a studio setting and the streets of downtown Winnipeg, this video captures the essence of Caid’s artistry—his energy, his vision, and his presence that still resonates with so many. From the intimate, moody studio shots to the raw and cinematic visuals of Winnipeg’s cityscape, we aimed to create something that reflects his spirit and dedication to his craft. Caid was not just an artist; he was a storyteller, a creator, and a force that inspired those around him. This project is a tribute to him and his music, and we hope it resonates with you as deeply as it does with us. Rest in power, Caid. Production by: DIRXECP Shot in Winnipeg, MB If you knew Caid or his music, drop a comment and share your favorite memories. Let’s keep his legacy alive. #CaidJones #Auror #WinnipegMusic 🌐 Website: https://www.dirxecp.com 📩 Book a Project: https://www.dirxecp.com/contact 🚁 Drone Services: https://www.dirxecp.com/winnipegdrone 🎛 Unreel Sessions: https://www.dirxecp.com/unreelsessions
