The piece was shot on 16MM film, which Mikey enhanced to create the bold and classic feel. To turn part of the short into black and white, Mikey used references from older French black and white film prints as inspiration. He applied the same silvery black and white look, giving the skin tone a glamorous "French" shine. For the sections in color, the tones were kept very gentle. Mikey expands on the technique: "When film is exposed and stretched out to create what we see on the screen, I often see that the colors find their place very organically. There is something more analog and dreamy about it. For the grade, I kept the documentary spirit, while giving it a classic Vogue style."

The lush and warm look is a perfect counterpoint to the sweet story of Lupita, braiding her friends' hair and recalling the small moments of friendship that saw her to where she is today.
