Digital Cover Story with Noa Kirel: Like a unicorn, by Brunnei
The Digital Cover shooting project for L'Officiel Cyprus was a stunning collaboration between photographer Kitana and producer Brunnei. The talented team came together to Paris to showcase the beauty and creativity of Israeli singer Noa Kirel. Kirel, known for her dynamic performances as a singer and actress, had just released her Eurovision entry, "Like a Unicorn"
The team's vision for the project was to capture Kirel's unique style and personality in a digital format, using bold colors and striking poses. Kitana's masterful eye for composition and lighting paired perfectly with Brunnei's artistic direction, resulting in a stunning series of images in the heart of Paris that truly captured Kirel's essence. From whimsical to sultry, the photos showcased Kirel's versatility as a singer.
Noa Kirel, the biggest star Israel has known in the world - it is such an honor for us to host you in the magazine.
At what age did you start your career?
My first single was released when I was 14 years old.
At your age, you have accomplished the dreams and goals of people who are 50 years old. What is your secret?
Anything you wish for can be accomplished with persistence, willpower, and hard work. You represent Israel at Eurovision, the biggest stage in the world.
What is the feeling? Are you excited?
I'm excited to represent an entire country and to receive this kind of love and support. Throughout this crazy journey, I have a sense of mission and pride that I carry with me.
How long have you worked on this project?
In July I was informed of my selection, in December I began working on the song, and in February I started getting started on the choreography. Through the process I also worked with my team on choosing the clothes, working on the screens, and voice development lessons - A very long process.
What message do you want to convey to the world?
My message to the world really connects with my song that talks about the unicorn which is an animal that is unique, reserved for the world of fantasy.
The intention of the song is to say that uniqueness exists in each of us, and if you have a dream, use your unicorn, your uniqueness, and your specialness to fulfill your dream.
What are your plans for the next day after the Eurovision?
I intend to continue exactly from that point. Record songs, shoot music videos, have several series in the pipeline, and foray into the United States to continue promoting my international career. Always work hard
In addition to being a singer, you are also a businesswoman.
You own a makeup and hair line, participate in commercials and many projects - What is your tip for time management?
If you want enough - there is time for everything.
