Bio: Miró (she/her) is the visual director for LA-based indie-pop group TANGERINE with her sister Marika and their good friend Toby, as well as an English Major at UCLA, and a poet. Over the years TANGERINE has grown to favor the more DIY approach to their music videos, taking control of every aspect of the process from directing to editing and shooting. The band has created “Local Mall,” “Cherry Red,” the mini-Instagram clips for “Chains,” and finally “The Coldest Winter” which Miró took the lead on creating and executing this year. The band currently has a string of songs and videos in the works which will be released in the coming year.
