Read Like You Listen
Imogene Barron
Traditional darkroom printing, film editing, colour, VFX and bespoke sound design. Spotify’s Read Like You Listen brought together some very different disciplines under one roof.
Working closely with photographer and director Imogene Barron, alongside KINTZING and Spotify, IMAGINE handled the complete campaign post-production across film and image.

Two people are sitting in a car, both appearing relaxed and content. One has curly red hair and is seated at the wheel, wearing a light-colored shirt. The other person leans back, showcasing voluminous curly hair styled with colorful clips. There is a fluffy white pillow in the background, adding a cozy touch to the scene.
Two people relax on a lush green lawn, each on a sun lounger. One person wears a light pink shirt, denim shorts, and shades, engrossed in their phone. The other is dressed in a white shirt and brown pants, peacefully resting with eyes closed. A boom box sits between them, and a garden hose winds across the grass.
The visual direction began in our darkroom, where Imogene worked closely with our in-house printer to establish the campaign’s colour and tonal character through traditional photographic printing.
The resulting prints became the reference for both the stills and the films, carrying a shared photographic aesthetic through to the final retouching and colour grades.

Sound was equally important in bringing the films to life. Our team developed bespoke soundscapes, paying particular attention to the smaller details that give a place its character.
A sprinkler running in the background, distant reggaeton drifting through a scene, the muffled sounds of the city through a hotel window and music heard through car speakers rather than laid directly over the picture.
It’s these small details that might go unnoticed, but make all the difference to how a film feels.
