Directing duo MOM turn an LA strip mall into an atmospheric&nbsp;wonderland&nbsp;for&nbsp;Aryeé The Gem.In their second video for the up-and-coming R&amp;B artist following the dreamlike <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omyM2wStgi8" target="_blank">FWM</a>, husband and wife team MOM - Matt Plaxco and Ray Larkin -&nbsp;keep their&nbsp;focus on performance and creative cinematography in the video for F.O.L., as Aryeé drifts from parking lot to supermarket, surrounded by strangers in their cars enjoying the late-night vibes.The abyss-like darkness stands in contrast with the heavy wash of UV light and vibrant colours, which creates&nbsp;an enigmatic and thrilling scene - it's an inspired complement to Aryeé The Gem's&nbsp;woozy, moody soundscapes.&nbsp;Lovely work.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;

&nbsp;Jared Malik Royal directs a darkly enigmatic promo for new alt-pop artist Bruses.&nbsp;The video for Coma Party is based on a true story, written by Bruses. In an atmospheric industrial location, a group of mysterious strangers circle round the artist, taking part in an almost ritualistic dance.&nbsp;With strobing lights and fog-filled frames, the video builds to an explosive climax.&nbsp;

Directing duo MOM direct an experimental cinematic epic for singer-songwriter James Tonic that leaves a lasting impression.&nbsp;The video for Stuck In LA plays out across a wistful extended opening scene, including dialogue and the Morntreal-born musician's musings in French,&nbsp;together with a dreamlike performance montage.&nbsp;Tinged with surrealism and a sense of misplacement, the video by the husband-and-wife directing team sees Tonic hooked up to a old reel-to-reel tape machine, and&nbsp;motoring up and down an arid landscape in a 70s sedan whilst being tormented by his past - appearing in the form of a glittery, devil-red dancer, a manifestation of his ex-lover who appears in the opening sequence.&nbsp;Dusty, sun bleached textures and intimate camera angles immerse viewers in this haunting world, which loops and twists like that one nightmare you just cannot shift. It's hauntingly reminiscent of art movies of the 70s and 80s in its strangeness - and utterly absorbing.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

Fashion&nbsp;designer and now director Priya Ahluwalia helms a fast-moving and heartwarming&nbsp;video for&nbsp;Hak Baker, where a houseparty at the Baker gets a multi-generational boost.In No Control!, Hak is having family and friends round for a social, where all the young ones are told to entertain themselves in the bedroom upstairs. Not surprisingly, that plan does not last very long. Soon the kids are down with the adults, and soon everyone is dancing and living it up in the front room.&nbsp;Ahluwalia keeps the camera in constant motion to capture the vibrant energy of the cast and the scenario. And the the&nbsp;wardrobe from the music video pairs her designs with Puma's iconic 'Speed Cat' trainers, featured in the Ahluwalia SS25 show, creating a nostalgic, energetic vibe that complements both Hak Baker’s reggae-influenced music and visuals.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Raja Virdi directs a glossy performance promo for LISA, focussing on the K-Pop star's beautiful performance&nbsp;in a romantic theatrical setting, in line with the style and feel of the song.Silky smooth and utterly captivating, the video for Moonlit Floor is an up close and personal showcase of the artist's performance skills, particularly with a ballad - a departure from some of the more fast-paced pop we're used to from her solo career to date.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;"It was such a fantastic opportunity to direct this video," Virdi explains. "I'm a K-Pop fan, and I especially love what LISA has been doing in her solo era and how Blackpink (LISA's group) has helped pave the industry, so collaborating with LISA and her management team LLOUD on this was a really wonderful experience."At its core, it's a stripped-back performance, unlike anything LISA has done before. We let her performance play out in these dream-like gliding longer takes, allowing the song's emotion to shine through in her movement. We opted for two setups, the first being in a sort of loft-style band rehearsal space and then seamlessly transitioning into a stunning theatre stage performance. This helped keep the piece fresh and showcases LISA's fantastic performance in two striking settings."I couldn't have done this without my incredible LA team, who quickly put it together. Massive thanks to my brilliant producer Jami Arceo, DOP extraordinaire Brett Arndt, production designer Wes Goodrich, and incredible 1st AD RJ Collins for keeping things moving and my post team, editor David Checel, colourist Connor Coolbear (and my very good friends at ETC) for putting the beautiful finishing touches on this, and of course, Black Dog for their support."

PXKRW directs a hypnotic promo for New York and London-based producer I'MMORTAL.The video for Killed U In A Dream features the artist as a&nbsp;transcendent deity in a series of haunting, cinematic scenes. The&nbsp;dreamlike performance&nbsp;embodies vulnerability and defiance, shifting into a dark feminine goddess archetype.Boasting an abstract, editorial aesthetic, the video is punctuated by stirring conceptual moments, elevated by the bold styling and make-up.&nbsp;The use of enigmatic textures and environments also adds to the effect, building a strange otherworld that is perfectly suited to the concept.&nbsp;“Our concept is centred around transformation, rebirth, and self-empowerment” say PXKRW about the video, their first since signing to Black Dog Films earlier this year. “Inspired by the form of chrysalis, it symbolizes the process of healing, metamorphosis, and growth, while also representing armour - a manifestation of inner strength…“When I’MMORTAL approached us, we found shared inspirations in Y2K, high-art fashion, and campy horror vibes. The result is a futuristic-supernatural fantasy that perfectly captures the artist’s persona.”
