With the return of Tunng after a five year break with new album Songs You Make At Night&nbsp;- and back together in their original line-up - longtime collaborator&nbsp;James Moore revisits the story world of their 2006 single Jenny Again to create an absorbing nocturnal folktale for the song Sleepwalking.We rejoin reclusive Jenny (played by Louise Stewart) living beside the sea, plagued by troubling visions and unwanted sleepwalking. She has taken to boobytrapping her home in a desperate bid to avoid unintentionally leaving the house.But as her guilt grows, her inner demons manifest, calling Jenny down to the beach and a battle that she can no longer ignore...

Tall Black Cabins &ndash;&nbsp;the first single from the new Leisure Society album&nbsp;The Fine Art of Hanging On &ndash;&nbsp;explores the struggles of the UK&rsquo;s single boat fishermen and James Moore headed down to the Sussex coast with DoP Dave Miller to document a day in the life of such a&nbsp;fisherman.This hard existence of&nbsp;hard toil for terribly scant reward is revealed with a combination of understated&nbsp;honesty and gritty beauty&nbsp;by James Moore - adding this to his portfolio of videos for&nbsp;Full Time Hobby artists, including Tunng&#39;s Hustle, and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/06/13/erland-carnival-quiet-love-james-moore" target="_blank">Erland &amp; The Carnival&#39;s Quiet Love</a>.

Lucy Needs&#39; long association with Slow Club - this is her sixth video for the band - has resulted in memorable one-shot star turns&nbsp;with <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2010/04/20/slow-club%E2%80%99s-giving-love-lucy-needs" target="_blank">Mackenzie Crook&nbsp;on Giving Up On Love</a> and <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/news/2012/06/20/slow-club-beginners-lucy-needs" target="_blank">Daniel Radcliffe on Beginners</a>. But her video for Complete Surrender brings an element definitely missing with those projects - glamour.&nbsp;&nbsp;SC&#39;s Charles&nbsp;and Rebecca have been transformed from the Sheffield indie kids of yore&nbsp;into a sophisticated couple &ndash; with&nbsp;Rebecca, in particular, the full-on&nbsp;ravishing beauty and pop video star.There&#39;s excellent photography by DoP Dave Miller, choreography by Francis Angol, to help Lucy Needs achieve a video of style and finesse - and if there&#39;s a tongue in a cheek somewhere, its barely noticeable.It&#39;s also&nbsp;Lucy&#39;s first&nbsp;video produced through Passion RAW, her new home for promos. It&#39;s a very auspicious start.

Bryan Barber, now being repped in the UK by Las Bandas Be Brave, works with hot pop trio Stooshe on the promo to the ridiculously hooky Slip.
In a co-production between New Treatment and Razor Factory in the US, Barber translates the distinctly retro-tastic Motown pastiche with this fun-filled romp placing the girls in a diner and down the bowling alley where they put in a stirling performance.

Alex de Campi delivers this retro, stylish and camp promo for the Puppini Sisters' reading of Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend.
"We wanted to honour the Puppini Sisters' retro tradition while also reinterpreting it in a more contemporary, fashionable light," Alex explains. "So our starting point were pulp novel covers and the pinups of Gil Elvgren via Vogue Magazine. DP Dave Miller brought along a wonderful set of vintage anamorphic lenses that flared beautifully and also allowed us to do some very classic full-body wides to echo the pinup feel. And of course there's a mountain of bling (I want that phone) and some fun VFX.

Giorgio Testi: "We wanted to get an energetic live feel but still keeping a promo vibe. I went for a proper multiformat approach - mixing up 16mm, RED Epic, DSLR, HD... as well as different frame rates".

Sam Pilling does a great job of translating the lazy, half-tempo dubstep of Distance's Falling with this slow-mo/vari-speed breakdance promo with a brilliant performance from Stephan Milhache.
"I really liked the hypnotic quality of the track and as soon as I listened to it, I could just see this mesmerizing image of a dancer moving in slow motion" explains Pilling.
"It was my first time shooting with a Phantom and there were several ?difficulties on the day - mainly that the weather was not on our side, so we didn't have as much natural light to help us out as we had hoped. However, Dave Miller our DOP did a sterling job and after spending the morning stringing up the lights to the main roof (to mimic sunlight) we were away...
"Stefan, our dancer simply nailed the moves, again and again and again... It ?was a pleasure to watch him fly through the air all day. In fact it seemed he never got tired
"Everyone worked really hard, with a special thank you to Denny @ Rushes for ?doing such a nice job on the grade".

The latest video for the talented Coco Electrik by George Tsioutsias is quite a change from his previous ones like <a href="Coco Electrik" target="_blank">Fire And Ice</a>. This one is low on special effects trickery and production value, but high on choreographic ingenuity - a group of dancers recreate the song's eponymous killer spider. Also it gives Coco full scope for an endearingly theatrical performance.

Months after her excellent video for Slow Club's <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/2009/07/01/slow-club%E2%80%99s-it-doesnt-always-have-to-be-beautiful-by-lucy-needs/" target="_blank">It Doesn't Always Have To Be Beautiful</a>, Lucy Needs is back with Slow Club (the Matt and Kim of Sheffield) and a genuine one-shot - this time with the assistance of the unique Mackenzie Crook and a lovely old fairground attraction. 
Mackenzie - looking cold and bitter, and like he's given up as he heads towards a cold sky - makes it. And he nails the lipsync to a upbeat song with a downbeat message. 
And that's a nice looking funfair...

Lucy Needs on making the video for Slow Club's Giving Up On Love
"We shot this at dawn near Hampton Court Palace. I'm happy to admit this was made for hundreds rather than thousands. I'd made a couple of crap videos and made the conscious decision to be bolder; and I don't think you always need budget to do that.

"Rebecca (from the band) and I went to see a show at the Apollo and decided to leave Mackenzie an album and a note at the stage door. God knows why, but he rang and said he was up for it. I'd only worked with bands and models until then so I never really had an understanding of acting and what a craft it is. He was perfect, he also just looks so fu*king cool.
"Both he and Dave [Miller] amaze me, the way they mould what you want with their own craftsmanship is incredible.. I really can't thank either of them enough. I'm slowly starting to learn how much there actually is to play around with and it makes the prospect of film-making so much more exciting.
"Thanks to Moshi Moshi, who are brilliant, Rebecca &amp; Charles who make me a really proud mate. And to George and Arthur from Irvin Leisure for letting me use their wheel. Everyone should get down to a funfair this summer, because those old rides are so beautiful and music videos aren't the only trade to have taken a hit lately."

Bonus Slow Club video! Shot the same morning (and presumably rather spontaneous) here's a live B-side by Rebecca and Charles - their cover of Chad Vangaalen's Willow Tree. 
Lovely harmonies, with added wind.

The promo for the first single from Tunng's fourth studio album And Then We Saw Land is the first video by James Moore - he and producer Will Spicer usually shoot live concerts and other longform content - and a real departure for the band: they actually appear in it.
"We wanted to create a promo that showcased the band themselves as they hadn't appeared in any of their previous videos," says James. So he made them the house band in a waiting room from hell - or in fact, as James describes it, "a wonky purgatory" through which various characters pass, carrying a treasured possession.
Shot in an abandoned police station in Hertfordshire on RED, James says, "I wanted to embrace the banality of waiting in order to contrast with the seemingly chirpy nature of the song. I also wanted to put a stuffed dog in a video."

So why should his Wiley video by any different Well, it isn't. Another excellent video, with great performances from dancers Shanie Ryan and Yasmin Ogbu, and a top edit. 
And Wiley even showed up (eventually) and performed. Take that.

Ben Newman on making the video for Wiley's Take That
"I had hardly anytime to prepare for this and thought simplicity was the best option. I wanted to do something that focussed on Wiley's performance without any narrative. I had the feeling that any sort of story would be lost in the filthy bass. 

"In typical style Wiley showed up extremely late but we got some time and covered as much as we could. It was great to work with him... and I thank the lord he showed up. 
"Special thanks again to US3 productions for housing the project and Mr Dave Miller who did a great job keeping up with Yas, the craziest dancer I've ever met. Also Andrew Rider who did an amazing job at putting it all together."

Impressive video for the remix of Example's new single by Ben Newman - his second Example vid after the equally impressive Hooligans. 
All about a young lady who doesn't need a gym to do her gymnastics. Great idea, effectively done - on another teeny budget. 


Ben Newman on making the video for the remix of Example's Watch The Sun Come Up
"Example's label approached me to make a video for the remix of 'Watch the Sun Come Up' by Devils Gun. I'm a big fan of the song and have known the Devils Gun boys for a while. I didn't want to compete with the main video so decided to leave Elliot (Example) out of it and concentrate on a key character and simple narrative. 
"The budget was £2K so I couldn't really afford to be too adventurous but knew I wanted to make something clean and 'pop like' that would appeal to his fans. So the bendy, chav, dancing girl was born! 
"I found Erin Jamenson through the world champion free runner Tim Sheiff (who also features in the video). She is amazing and has really no fear. The location in Hackney is a place I've been obsessed about for a long while - it's beautiful and acts as an amazing backdrop for Erin to dance through. 
"I just need to say a very special thanks to Dave Miller who DoP'd - he did an amazing job and hired himself out at a rate that most runners would laugh at. He really loves what he does and it was great working with him and his crew. Also to US3 productions who came in at the last minute to help organise and manage production."
