In addition to researching and acquiring images and footage of Shakira from Colombia and other countries that had not previously been shown in the US before, I field produced the shoot in Bogotá and Barranquilla in Colombia and interviewed a variety of people including family, friends and colleagues from Shakira's life in my native Spanish.
