Thomas Davis and&nbsp;Willow Kayne turn London into a Hellish otherworld in this fabulously fun video for White City.&nbsp;This is the follow-up to Davis and Willow's collab on the sweet and energetic video for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/05/09/willow-kayne-final-notice-thomas-davis/76288" target="_blank">Final Notice</a>. This one starts innocently enough too, as we follow a girl styled to look like a young Willow, experiencing several interactions - both good and bad - with local residents, which includes the real Willow&nbsp;roleplaying several different jobs.&nbsp;And then things take a weird turn: giant eyeballs, no less.&nbsp;begin to descend from tower blocks; the girl is served a rather Cronenbergian dish of delights at a café...&nbsp;things get distinctly topsy-turvy.&nbsp;And then the ending suggests a slightly Apocalyptic note, before returning to a sense of normality... Or has it?This is brilliant, knockabout&nbsp;work from the team. The tone is&nbsp;both playful and slightly unnerving, accentuated by a&nbsp;great use of visual effects.

Beabadoobee '10:36' (Official Live Video) by Thomas Davis

Beabadoobee - 10:36 (Official Live Video)

Ben Newbury helms a scintillating and breathless POV journey of a rocket-powered space woman as she flies across the globe, Iron Man-style, for Navos and Galantis's uplifting dance anthem What It Feels Like.Newbury has harnessed the latest in both drone and greenscreen technology to create this action-packed extravaganza, to make it feel like a woman really can fly - speeding through&nbsp;some glorious landscapes, both natural and urban - until she makes a truly spectacular&nbsp;crash-landing.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;"You know you’re on to a basic concept that will probably make a good video when each time you talk it through everyone keeps having more and more ideas for it -&nbsp;that totally happened with this," says Ben Newbury. "I have to give props to the commissioner John Hassay. He was looking for a video that: a young audience would watch to the end;&nbsp;a video that captured euphoria (the feeling not the TV show). Challenge accepted.<blockquote>Having a wild visual idea is one thing but you’re only going to hook the audience if they connect to it.</blockquote>"So the pitch was this… we experience the explosive, psychedelic journey of a spacewoman as she re-enters the atmosphere and hurtles round the surface of the earth - all from a POV inside her helmet. This hyper-colour, over-saturated, warp speed journey takes us from the edge of space, through epic mountains, forests, cities and deserts, flying through impossibly small spaces and trippy VFX wormholes, to match the euphoric feeling of the track. Before she smashes into the ground. Easy peezy."The flight itself was created with FPV drones, filmed around the world, frame matching different takes to create one sequence. Adding in the initial fall from space and trippy wormholes in VFX. Once our VFX wizards had the edit stitched together, and we had all enjoyed another Covid test, we headed to the XR stage in Garden Studios. After some careful testing, Olly Nice our cinematographer extraordinaire rigged the camera inside a space helmet, created by our fabulous art director Katie South, ready for the XR screens to play back the journey.[imgtoken data:2]"The XR screen array enabled us to perfectly match the lighting in the reflections inside the helmet and on her hands and arms, allowing our space woman to appear to look around and throw her arms out in time with the flight (as well as becoming the desert backdrop and lighting for our final shot). Our wonderful actress Poppy Christie positioned herself underneath the camera, while our SFX team (the whole rest of crew) held all manor of wind machines, spritzers, leaf blowers and smoke machines ready for launch. This made the final video pretty much a one-taker, with everyone firing smokers and squirting water at the camera."One goal I kept coming back to throughout pre-production was to make sure the video was about the emotional experience the space woman was having on her journey down to earth. Having a wild visual idea is one thing but you’re only going to hook the audience if they connect to it. If they care. It needed a human element to create that sense of jeopardy. So our solution was to shoot a plate shot of Poppy performing the flight facing the XR screen without the helmet, then composite that as a reflection into the visor in a final round of post, to allow the audience to see her performance.[imgtoken data:3]"Pulling all this off would not have been possible without the brilliant Ramy Dance and Alessia Lendrum from Common People Films. Alessia harnessed the true purpose of the internet, organising FPV drone pilots all around the world, who shot in deserts, mountains, jungles and cities to create the amazing footage that makes up the flight."Big shout out to Tom Bailey and Greg Ayala at FNDM who designed the artwork that kicked off the thought process. I also want to thank our head leaf blower op and PA - Ynez Myers, AC - Mark James, HMU - Eliza Clarke, the Drone Pilots - Luca Morandini, Fabrizio Botto, Smirnov Dmitrii Olegovich, Zakir Mohammad &amp; Jerry Chan. Then on Edit - Matthew Blacklock, Grade - Kathryn Dymmock, Sound Design - James Hall and our VFX brains - James Taylor, Darri Thorsteinsson and Shivam Solanki. As well as Andy Roberts, Amy Collins and Mariama Camara. And finally Navos and Galantis for making such a massive banger."

Thomas Davis storms back into action with this joyously energetic video for the charismatic Willow Kayne.Filmed at Rough Trade East and surrounding Brick Lane area in East London, Willow requests 'Jungle' from the resident DJ - and then he cues up her new song Final Notice.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;It's music biz-critiquing message, against making her a clone of other pop stars, plays second fiddle to the altogether happy vibes of Willow and fellow cast in Davis's video - nicely shot in classic fashion by&nbsp;Jake Erland.All well and good, as this could be a DnB/Pop crossover banger of the coming summer. It's really quite boombastic...

NYSU - aka Spanish director Jesus Hernandez -&nbsp;directs a wonderfully eccentric promo for KAWALA.&nbsp;The video for&nbsp;Jesse C'mon centres on a man - played by&nbsp;Andy&nbsp;Díaz - who just can't stop shuffling his head to the beat of the track, wearing a happy&nbsp;smile.Various characters materialise around him, and the environment switches from studio space to house, to inside a vending machine. But despite all of this, he keeps nodding his head, perpetually stuck in a trancelike state. Even as various forces gather to wipe that smile from his face.&nbsp;From angry robbers to swing dancers, a baseball bat-swinging piñata-hitter, to&nbsp;a B-movie 50 ft Girlfriend, it's a highly imaginative&nbsp;visual take on&nbsp;the track.In fact, it is so&nbsp;easy to get absorbed into the playful concept, you might even find yourself bobbing your head to the beat...[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

The latest episode in Greg Barth's ongoing collaboration with Easy Life is the&nbsp;whimsical video for Have A Great Day - and takes us back to the summertime and the English seaside.This one was inspired by the photography of Martin Parr, and shot on a windy day in Broadstairs, it transforms&nbsp;a typical British day at the beach into a slightly surreal experience.&nbsp;The video experiments with cyclical camera movements and a postcard gag,&nbsp;resetting the scene after each cycle. The characters get progressively messier - both in the literal and figurative meaning of the word - as they throw ice creams, start play-fighting and falling over themselves.&nbsp;The inspired blend of visual effects and live action creates a mesmerising aesthetic. Playful, characterful, and on the verge of chaotic - just like a day at the seaside. And its very Easy Life.&nbsp;

Bullet For My Valentine 'Rainbow Veins' by Carl Addy

Bullet-For-My-Valentine-'Rainbow-Veins'-by-Carl-Addy

At 24, Thomas Davis already has a few years&nbsp;experience as a&nbsp;music video director. He co-directed his first video at 19, and since then has been active in both directing videos and live performances, building partnerships with a number of artists in the new wave of UK rock and indie-pop - including Beabadoobee, Alfie Templeman and NOISY.Thomas hails from Rayleigh, near Southend in Essex. An (un)wasted youth of making skate videos with his mates was followed by studying&nbsp;Film Practice at London South Bank University. He was, unitl recently, a resident of&nbsp;Stoke Newington in East London, but since joining Beabadoobee on tour until the end of the year, his address has become: "a&nbsp;tourbus, somewhere in the US..."WORK:What jobs were you doing before you reached your current position? I used to work in my local skateshop when I had just left school. But once I needed to earn some proper cash, I used to work night shifts cleaning ventilation systems. Crawling through tiny duct work scraping grease to make the bread. Makes me grateful to appreciate what I'm doing nowadays.<blockquote>I love telling stories in my work.</blockquote>Which music video most excited and inspired you when you were growing up? The first video I remember falling in love with was this tune from the video game EA Skate 1 -&nbsp;Chase Money by Trouble Andrew. He is this dope artist also known as GUCCI GHOST. I remember searching for the song on YouTube as a kid and came across the music video. It was just so cool. Trouble Andrew's performance is sick, and it was sick to see skateboarding in there. That's probs why I loved it so much. hahaha[vidtoken data:0]Name a project (or 2) you’ve done that was significant as a learning experience, and why? The first music video I directed back in 2016: RATBOY'S GET OVER IT. I had just turned 19, and built a relationship with RATBOY and we were on tour when he asked if I wanted to direct the music video for the tune. We wrote a crazy idea and the label actually let us go ahead and make it.We shot it out in the desert near Almeria in Spain. I had turned up to the hotel and I met the first AD, and I was like, 'who is this guy making a schedule?' and all that. It was all quite mad to begin with - it even got nominated for Best Music Video at the NME awards in 2017. It was kinda that point where I knew I was pretty good at this.[vidtoken data:1]<blockquote>We wrote a crazy idea and the label actually let us go ahead and make it.</blockquote>What’s your favourite music video-related job (or 2) of the past year or so, and why? My favorite music video-related jobs this year were probably my last two or even three videos - including the <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/07/23/noisy-young-dumb-thomas-davis/72043" target="_blank">NOISY video for Young Dumb</a>. I feel like these videos was where I really found my style in the music video format. These were videos that I had just purely written what I had wanted and they had all been commissioned.Don't get me wrong, they were all ridiculously ambitious (sorry production), but it's all worth it when you see the work at the end. So I guess it was quite motivating, making me push myself further.[vidtoken data:2]I really loved working with Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes on <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/08/25/frank-carter-rattlesnakes-ft-lynks-go-get-tattoo-thomas-davis/72499" target="_blank">Go Get A Tattoo</a>. We made what I would say a pretty epic video. To be honest, I don’t really know how this idea came about. I just listened to the song a few times, and had a call with the band's management and then it just kinda came out of nowhere. There was a lot of in camera SFX and quite a lot of post work done too.[vidtoken data:3]Another sick project we made was for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/02/22/alfie-templeman-everybodys-gonna-love-somebody-thomas-davis/69601" target="_blank">Alfie Templeman’s Everybody's Gotta Love Somebody</a> that we shot in January. Another ambitious idea that I originally wanted to shoot overseas, but due to the pandemic, we just couldn’t travel. We were extremely lucky shooting on the only day of sunshine in a lockdown January at the start of this year, in a quarry in Ipswich.&nbsp;The narrative follows the artist Alfie Templeman befriending a puppet called Brain as they go on conquest to re-connect Brian with his long lost love (another fluffy puppet named Suzie), set in somewhat of an intergalactic desert.[vidtoken data:4]What are your favourite other jobs (music videos or otherwise) in the past year or so? Another one of my favourite jobs was the bigboy live session we did for Beabadoobee's debut album&nbsp;Fake It Flowers.&nbsp;Bea was supposed to tour her debut record, but due to the pandemic, her tour and like everything else, was cancelled. So it was a blessing to be given to the opportunity to document her debut in such a large scale and in what I&nbsp;would say in such an iconic way. Like all my jobs, it was ambitious, but having such a solid team around me always lets us make the best shit possible!![vidtoken data:5]What’s coming next? And what would you like to be doing in future? What's coming next? I'm not sure to be honest. I just want to keep making videos that I enjoy and get a real kick creatively from. Me and my rep are looking to step me in to commercials, I've pitched on a couple. But waiting for that first big bang in that field you know.But in the far future, I guess I would like to make a feature film. I love telling stories in my work, and to have the thought of someone sit there for an hour and a half watching something that I've made, and hopefully leave the cinema feeling something new... yeah that's what I'd love to do.<blockquote>I'm still working it all out.</blockquote>Do you have any advice for someone entering your field? The best bit of advice I can give to someone entering my field is just get a camera and shoot. Post your work online and start watching other people's work. Become inspired and keep making shit and don't stop being productive.LIFE:Tell us something that we don’t know about you... There's a lot I don't know about myself, so I guess what you don't know is that I'm still working it all out.When you’re not working, what do you like to spend time doing? I'm usually just chilling or hanging out. I'll be out skating if the weather is nice, or down the pub enjoying a cold one.What are your favourite music videos by other people in the past year? I absolutely loved a few videos by The Rest, Slowthai's guys. The video for NHS - I feel it was a great documentation of the current time, and it just hit me hard. It was so stripped back, but such a great watch. I also loved the video for Vexed, the idea of the human meat coming from the people that Slowthai and Skepta murder, then putting them inside the the burgers that send people crazy. That shit's too good. Lol.[vidtoken data:6]<blockquote>The Slowthai video for NHS...&nbsp;just hit me hard.</blockquote>Where did you go on your last holiday? My last holiday, was off of the back of a trip shooting in LA. We did a Nike content job, then stayed out for the vibes for a week after the shoot. So I guess it was a holiday?What have you enjoyed most recently on the TV or at the cinema? I absolutely loved Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, when I watched it for the first time the other week. I put off from watching it as I had a handful of friends say "nah, its not that good... blah blah". But eventually I watched it and I was so annoyed.&nbsp;I should have watched it way sooner. It's use of visual storytelling is so so great. To be honest the whole film is incredible.[vidtoken data:7]Favourite music and artists in the past year or so? And of all time? Past year: Easy Life, Slowthai, Working Mens Club, NOISY; All time:&nbsp;Beastie Boys, Fugazi ... there's just too many.Favourite book you’ve read, and/or best exhibition you’ve seen recently? I need to read more.<blockquote>It's important to tell your friends you love them.</blockquote>Favourite food &amp; restaurant(s)? I love a tapas. Theres a banging Cuban spot in Dalston, <a href="https://www.escudodecuba.com/" target="_blank">Escudo de Cuba</a>. The cocktails are pretty naughty too. Can't beat a good late night McDonalds. Yeah it's bad for you, but it's the best.What’s your favourite political or charitable cause, and why? A charitable cause that I have a personal connection with is <a href="https://thebenraemersfoundation.com/" target="_blank">The Ben Raemers Foundation</a>. Ben was a professional skateboarder from Essex who had taken his life in 2019. The charity was set up to maintain Ben's legacy and raise awareness around mental health within the skateboarding scene.[imgtoken data:1]Creating a platform that enables people to talk about mental health, breaking down their fears, removing the misgivings and preconceptions around mental health stigma. It's important to TELL YOUR FRIENDS YOU LOVE THEM.Best recent purchase (send photo, if poss)? Slush Puppy Machine. Got it around the time of when the Euros was on. Frozen slushys on tap. Too good.Work &amp; Life - balance/ imbalance out of five (1 for imbalance; 5 for balance)? I'd say my work Life Balance is deffo about a 3 to 3.5. It's hard for me to have any balance when I'm busy. But I try and keep chirpy and chill. But when there is time off, I'm still learning how to take it without wanting to work and make more videos.• Thomas Davis is represented for music videos, content&nbsp;and commercials by&nbsp;Common People Films.

Thomas Davis follows up his impressive series of videos for NOISY - most recently the wonderfully bonkers&nbsp;<a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/07/23/noisy-young-dumb-thomas-davis/72043" target="_blank">Young Dumb</a> - with something just as off-the-wall for the returning Frank Carter &amp; The Rattlesnakes.Unsurprisingly for the heavily tattooed tattoo artist-rocker&nbsp;with a song called Go Get A Tattoo, the video is set in a tattoo parlour. A nervous young man enters to have his first ever tattoo applied by Frank - but what happens next is much less predictable.When Frank's needle hits, and the customer howls in pain, we enter a darker, nightmarish world where Frank and the band tauntingly peform Go Get A Tattoo, and as the young man attempts to escape he is confronted by&nbsp;the rubber-masked presence of featured artist Lynks - emerging from a toilet.&nbsp;&nbsp;Davis and his team provide a stream of 'house of horror' sight gags - mostly created in-camera, with an added smidgeon of VFX -&nbsp;as the poor devil careers through his&nbsp;psychedelic nightmare, and finally imagine he is being consumed by his own tattoo design.&nbsp;It's a terrific vehicle for Frank Carter's no-holds-barred take on rock 'n roll - his tattooing skills, not so much...[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes ft Lynks 'Go Get A Tattoo' by Thomas Davis

An unlikely protagonist gets the release we're all yearning for, in Thomas Davis' action-packed promo for NOISY's Young Dumb.&nbsp;Having established a relationship with the group on a number of previous videos, Davis takes a more narrative direction with this one, which follows an old man making the most of a post-lockdown world.&nbsp;From choreography in the street to smoking a joint and ending up at a packed club, the man - brilliantly played by&nbsp;Andrew Norman - embodies our collective fantasies of getting out and finally being able to live life to the full again, and Davis heightens this fantasy through a stylish and invigorated lens.&nbsp;Paying homage to iconic 90's videos whilst being simultaneously imbued with a contemporary aesthetic, it's a spectacular watch, and possibly Davis' best video yet for the NOISY boys.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]THOMAS DAVIS:<blockquote>I wanted to make a video that was flamboyant and memorable.</blockquote>“I’m always buzzing to be working with NOISY. We’ve developed a really close friendship over the past two&nbsp;years or so. I think YOUNG DUMB is the 5th or 6th Music Video I’ve made for these guys now. These boys always write absolute belters of tunes. This one especially, I felt like the video really needed to represent the current climate in the world, but in an outrageous way. Life is to short to give a fuck sometimes, so you’ve just gotta let go. Even if you are getting old."To be honest, I’m not sure how the idea for this video came around. It all sorta just clicked in place. I had recycled a few scenes from other videos that I had pitched in the past year, but they never got commissioned. Like the toilet scene with the water bottle, that was part of another pitch that wasn’t as successful. So I guess this video was full of ideas that I had in the tank, all combined together with new ideas making this a film that I am super proud of.[imgtoken data:2]"I really just wanted to make a video that was flamboyant and memorable. I'm so into early 90’s videos, that don't really care too much. I think a lot of what we are seeing today is very oversaturated and not always true to life. It’s always about trying to make someone look cool, whereas in this video, for me it was about being taken on this journey with the old man, and living the day and night in the same moment as he does. Hopefully making you laugh a coupla’ times, or throughout."I always wanna big up Common People Films, who trust me with my silly ideas on tight deadlines and somewhat tight budgets. We always deliver, it’s how we roll! My producer and best mate Jake Parker, always puts the extra leg work in to help make these ideas come to life. Wouldn’t be possible to do the things that I do without the solid team that I have around me.”[imgtoken data:3]Ramy Dance (EP):“We immediately loved this treatment when Tommy wrote it. It had a slight nod towards Fatboy Slim's&nbsp;Weapons of Choice&nbsp;video which of course is a classic. We felt it also echoed what so many are feeling at the moment."As a society we just wanna release, get back to “normal” and party again (if you’re not too old :) Tommy and the crew really captured that youthful energy in this video. It was a long day and Andrew, our lead actor, was an absolute superstar. He was dancing and running about East London for 14 hours straight without a single complaint, HERO! "As ever the NOISY boys, MGMT and Island were brilliant to work with and a massive thanks to the (tested) crowd who showed up and gave it everything in the club!”
