    ‘Acrostic’ is the name of Shakira’s new song, which was released last Thursday night and quickly rose to #2 trending on YouTube. The lyrical video of this song portrays a bird that cares with love and care for her 2 little eggs, a feeling that overflows until they break and her 2 chicks are born.

    The animation of the video was in charge of the Costa Rican company Producciones Luz Marina. Marlon Villar, her director, spoke and revealed that Shakira really liked the work from the start.

    Happier than expected

    So much -she said- that she did not ask for any change to the proposal and later when she saw the final product, which is the one found on the video platforms. โ€œWhen the final project was presented to her, she liked it a lot, much more than that it is a very personal song, with a very special value because she sings to her children. The fact that the design was as pure as the song she liked, as well as the execution. She is very perfectionist and scrupulous about her work and that is why it is so satisfying that she did not ask for any change and that she liked it the first time: from the moment she saw it until nowโ€, Villar said.

    Precisely, Acrostic is a theme of unconditional love and resilience for her 2 little children, Sasha and Milan. It is the first production since the Colombian moved with her offspring from Barcelona to Miami, where they are rewriting their lives.

    In the video, the letters that make up the names of the 2 children appear. ThisisthepartdedicatedtoMilan:

    โ€œMe enseรฑaste que el amor no es una estafa y que cuando es real no se acabaโ€

    โ€œIntentรฉ que no me veas llorar, que no veas mi fragilidadโ€

    โ€œLas cosas no son como las soรฑamosโ€

    โ€œA veces corremos, pero no llegamosโ€

    โ€œNunca dudes que aquรญ voy a estarโ€.

    Milanโ€™s acrostic translation:

    (โ€œYou taught me that love is not a scam and that when it is real it does not endโ€

    โ€œI tried not to see me cry, not to see my fragilityโ€

    โ€œThings are not as we dreamed ofโ€

    โ€œSometimes we run, but we don’t arriveโ€

    โ€œNever doubt that I will be hereโ€)

    In the part dedicated to Sasha, she talks about forgiveness and moving on:

    โ€œSe nos rompiรณ sรณlo un plato; no toda la vajillaโ€

    โ€œAprender a perdonar es de sabios, que sรณlo te salga amor de esos labiosโ€

    โ€œSi las cosas se daรฑan, no se botan, se reparan; los problemas se afrontan y se encaranโ€

    โ€œHay que reรญrse de la vidaโ€

    โ€œA pesar de que duelan las heridas, se ha de entregar entero el corazรณnโ€

    Sashaโ€™s acrostic translation:

    (โ€œOnly one plate broke; not all crockeryโ€

    โ€œLearning to forgive is wise, that only love comes out of those lipsโ€

    โ€œIf things are damaged, they are not thrown away, they are repaired; problems are faced and facedโ€

    โ€œYou have to laugh at lifeโ€

    โ€œAlthough the wounds hurt, the heart must be given wholeโ€)

    Shakira respected from the sketch to the final product

    Villar commented that the contact between Luz Marina and Shakira’s work team took place about 2 months ago. โ€œWe have worked for several Sony Music artists; the producers hold us in high esteem and they liked the work. They asked us to make a proposal and Shakira and her entire team liked it. It is a project that did not last long: the detail was in the preparation of the illustrations and animation. That it had a finish and aesthetics as if it were a storybookโ€, explained the producer.

    The Costa Rican added that, at all times, Shakira and her team were very respectful of Luz Marina’s work, from the first moment when she was sent sketches. โ€œFor us it is about Shakira, the most popular artist in the world right now. She is a woman who has a history and with whom many of us grew up listening to her songs. Working with her was a very nice experience with a very good taste in the mouth and an agile process. This represents a great honor and responsibility for us to have been given this very personal and intimate projectโ€, concluded Villar.

    Piquรฉ is not the protagonist this time

    Shakira aspires to repeat the success she recently achieved with Monotonรญa, the session with Bizarrap, and TQG, a duet song with her countrywoman, Karol G. These are 2 songs that were addressed to her ex-couple, Gerald Piquรฉ, after the infidelity of the ex-soccer player and father of his 2 children.

    Costa Rican export talent

    Luz Marina has specialized in the production of music videos and commercials for almost 10 years, which are held in July. Villar assured that the team has worked with artists such as Alicia Keys, Nicky Jam, Ricardo Arjona and Franco de Vita.

    With Alicia Keys they were in charge of the video remix of the song Underdog, in which Nicky and Rauw Alejandro also participate; with Jam they were responsible for Desahogo, in which Carla Morrison collaborates; and with Arjona they were hand in hand with the Guatemalan for most of the videos on the Circo Soledad album. In fact, some of the videos were made in Costa Rica and others in Los Angeles.
