A man comes face-to-face with his shadow for the first time in&nbsp;Sinéad McDevitt's stunning visual for Mick Flannery.&nbsp;Devastated from past mistakes, the man - played by Steve Wall - is spiralling out of control. Haunted by memories of a steamy&nbsp;affair with a woman&nbsp;in the backseat of his car, he attempts to walk away from his problems. But he is followed by another version of himself, and things lead to an unexpected and poignant climax.&nbsp;Shot in dreary black and white, the mood is very much reflected in the aesthethic, with DoP&nbsp;Ashley Barron contrasting expansive, lonely shots of the landscape with up-close, uncomfortably intimate portraits.&nbsp;

Mick Flannery 'Wasteland' by Sinéad McDevitt

Tension boils over in the Mystery Jets video for Screwdriver, directed by Henry Dean.&nbsp;In a series of cinematic vignettes, we see different groups of characters explore the border between love and anger, all in their own unique ways. This fragile gap between the two emotional states is of particular focus, and&nbsp;is represented through unexpected and poignant moments on-screen.A setup with four stereotypically masculine men is turned on its head, and it is through several instances of&nbsp;these subverted expectations that the magic of the concept starts to shine.&nbsp;Beautifully shot with&nbsp;Cineovision Anamorphic lenses, DoP&nbsp;Ashley Barron heightens the emotionality of every setup with careful attention to composition and lighting, and the pacing and reveals of the big moments are expertly handled by editor Mike Radforth.&nbsp;

Gregory Ohrel gives Oh Wonder the one-shot treatment in the video for Hallelujah. Shot in Kiev, the video is colourful and unique,&nbsp;and features a cast of locals performing complex choreography&nbsp;as they transport the artists through the air and across&nbsp;the landscape.Strong performances aside, the camerawork is ever evolving and helps pull&nbsp;the concept together, allowing us to move from beautiful bird's eye views to intimate closeups seamlessly. The art direction is also inspired, switching from monchromatic to a rainbow burst of colour within seconds, a scattering of bold yellows, purples and pinks set aside the lush greenery.&nbsp;It's a great addition to Oh Wonder's marvellously creative videography, and the perfect introduction to their new music.&nbsp;

Oh Wonder 'Hallelujah' by Gregory Ohrel

Oh-Wonder-'Hallelujah'-by-Gregory-Ohrel

Editors’ danceable riff of the Frankenstein myth is equal parts gruesome, danceable, sexy, mean-spirited and cool.In the video by Gregory Ohrel (from Greg &amp; Lio) a&nbsp;young cop has developed a taste for brutality. And bludgeoning petty criminals just isn’t doing it for him anymore. So he takes a shovel to the graveyard, and with the help of a WikiHow tutorial, he creates the perfect partner in crime. This&nbsp;is his idol,&nbsp;“Baeonse” - get it?Editors have always had an experimental impulse. The Brummie post-punk band have&nbsp;worked with Martin de Thurah, and recently sought production from cult drone band Fuck Buttons. But politely, this video-nasty could be described as a bit of an edgy pivot from the band that wrote All Sparks&nbsp;and Munich.Thankfully, in the competent hands of Ohrel, the video is provocative and not exploitative. Doctor&nbsp;Frankenstein and his monster are an absolute joy to watch - especially when they turn into an awesome&nbsp;dancing duo. Ohrel’s videos are&nbsp;reliably grand and expensive. And this one feels huge, thanks to some otherworldly post-Soviet locations and opulent photography by feature DOP Ashley Barron, and a narrative drive that just keeps going. Right to the very end.
