Cher Lloyd finds her way in Raja Virdi's vibrant one-shot video for Lost.&nbsp;Set in a pastel-coloured, deconstructed bedroom set, Lloyd performs as the camera moves around her in one continuous take.&nbsp;Art director&nbsp;Liz El Kadhi infuses the space with plenty of colour and texture, creating a contemporary, yet ever so slightly anachronistic aesthetic.&nbsp;Multiple lighting cues switch up the colour palette throughout, contrasting the highs and lows&nbsp;to mirror the undulating emotions of the track.

Cher Lloyd cleans up her act in her comeback video, directed by Raja Virdi.&nbsp;Switching from neon-lit laundrette interiors to breathtaking choreography in front of The Barbican in London, the bold colours and striking visuals for new single M.I.A. are&nbsp;a statement and an assertion - Cher Lloyd is back.&nbsp;Wonderfully lensed by Dan Stafford Clark, the video feels contemporary and relevant, and the '90s styling and choreography from Kimmy Taylor builds upon this aesthetic perfectly.

Crystal Fighters perform while lying on their backs in flatbed trucks that are speeding down a freeway, in Rob Brandon&#39;s video for Yellow Sun.It&#39;s a development of something he&#39;s done before, when part of directing duo Rob &amp; Rob, and this is just as effective.&ldquo;The song is really colourful and over the top, so I wanted the video to reflect that,&quot; he says.&nbsp;&quot;I shot on a 8K digital camera and then did loads of fuckery in post-production. We went full Peter Jackson&rsquo;s&nbsp; Hobbit&nbsp;on it.&rdquo;

Rob Brandon&#39;s video for Fickle Friends takes a familiar premise and makes it fresh and entertaining all over again.&nbsp;It&#39;s a casting session in which the auditionees fall under the mercy of a fussily idiosyncratic casting director - Rob Brandon himself.&nbsp;Pushing his charges to do all kinds of things for an unspecified production, out of which comes a performance of the bright and breezy Hello Hello, some stripping off and sexy dancing. &nbsp;Fun pop video vibes in the vein of Brandon&#39;s entertaining videos for George Ezra a couple of years back, whilst revealing the true reason why people want to direct: to get people to do silly things.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Glenn Paton has delivered&nbsp;a new video for Chase &amp; Status for&nbsp;All Goes Wrong that sees the singer Tom Grennan&nbsp;performing from&nbsp;an open casket in the ground.The clip&#39;s Sliding Doors-style structure&nbsp;delivers a story with&nbsp;two alternative outcomes. After&nbsp;a heated&nbsp;argument between Tom and&nbsp;his girlfriend, he&nbsp;leaves in a rage and everything gets worse from there. One thing leads to another, and when his girlfriend tries to break up a fight he&#39;s got himself into, then we really feel the tragic consequences of the negative spiral created by their&nbsp;initial conflict.It&#39;s a hard-hitting message&nbsp;-&nbsp;especially after we witness the alternative outcome&nbsp;had Tom just stuck it out&nbsp;with his girlfriend&nbsp;to patch&nbsp;things up.&nbsp;

Tim Mattia&rsquo;s ongoing&nbsp;collaboration with The 1975 forges on, with a departure from the&nbsp;slick, studio aesthetic established in&nbsp;<a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2016/03/01/1975-sound-tim-mattia" target="_blank">The Sound</a>&nbsp;to a charming&nbsp;scenario for A Change Of Heart, an assured episode of&nbsp;Chaplin-esque silent comedy.&nbsp;Combining some lovely black and white visuals&nbsp;with cute choreography, we see&nbsp;the band&#39;s frontman Matty as a&nbsp;mime, keeping himself entertained at&nbsp;a&nbsp;night time carnival. When his&nbsp;female companion shows up, their interplay is delightful - but the change of heart comes, when she starts to realise&nbsp;that this clown is more into himself than her.&nbsp;
