Released to tie-in with the release of his acclaimed debut feature Get Duked! on Amazon last week, Ninian Doff provides the movie's young quartet of unlikely heroes&nbsp;with a new mission of extreme&nbsp;mischief: an ill-advised break-in at a&nbsp;mansion containing the prized possessions of Run The Jewels and 2 Chainz.&nbsp;The feckless foursome's blundering efforts at a daring heist is overseen at all times by a series of animated portraits, and sculptures, of RTJ's Killer Mike and El-p, and guest star 2 Chainz. They discover the famous RTJ gloves, and some pink jewels giving off some psychotropic properties - and then they go too far.As in Get Duked!, the riotous fun that Doff creates around his characters transitions effortlessly from realistic live action comedy to something way more extreme and cartoonish - shrinking the characters down in a dimension,&nbsp;giving them metallic limbs and sending their faces into supersonic time warps, as they confront giant version of RTJ and 2 Chainz.[imgtoken data:1]It is high concept aesthetic - arguably a big step further from the movie - and it involved a really big production effort including shoots of the artists in New York and Atlanta - with Colin Read providing second unit directing duties - while Doff, aided and abetted by regular DoP Patrick Meller, shot the main action with his Get Duked! cast in the UK.&nbsp;&nbsp;It is a brilliant effort - but to properly enjoy, and get to know and love the characters, go check out the feature first.

Dizzee Rascal is a geezer not to be messed with in Romain Chassaing&#39;s video for Bop N Keep It Dippin. So when a young accountant rips off Dizzee&#39;s vicious yet somewhat careless gangster, it sets off an epic chase, involving eye-watering identity changes and blood-curdling violence as the accountant is hunted all over the world by Dizzee&#39;s goons.Chassaing, who&#39;s up for a couple of MVAs this week for his latest magnum opus for Naive New Beaters, applies the comedy-drama aesthetic that works so well with NNB, and ramps up body count big-time. As a result, this is an absolute corker. Including confirmation, if any were needed, that Dizzee can play scary. &nbsp;

Kent Hugo&#39;s animated landscape for Sälen is littered with surreal, nightmarish &#39;mistakes&#39; all in the name of aesthetic.Inspired by the surreal CGI works of people like David Lewandowski and rapidly-growing video phenomenon&nbsp;Cool 3D World,&nbsp;Hugo takes his CG characters and warps them beyond what seems natural, beyond even the surreal and into the realm of horrifying. The only rope that keeps the video from tipping into the realm of true nightmare-laden hell is the incredible colour pallette,&nbsp;which manages to give the whole thing a nonchalantly cool look.

Alexandra Green&#39;s latest collaboration with Vaults is a study in intimacy, memory, and trust. It&#39;s presented very simply - a man and a woman almost naked on a bed of flowers in a studio space that&#39;s been artificially lit to enhance the performative aspect of the ritual that&#39;s about to unfold.Vaults herself is one of the video&#39;s protagonists, and her co-star begins delicately wrapping her in black fabric. It&#39;s a surreal piece of imagery - evoking biblical imagery from the garden of Eden as well as ancient burial rituals whilst simultaneously looking like one section of a much larger Gregory Crewdson-esque&nbsp;tapestry. A simple act unfolds in a very visual way before our eyes.This the second outing as a director for Vaults by choreographer Ally&nbsp;Green - who has now joined the director&#39;s roster at Bullion Productions.

Vaults 'Hurricane' by Alexandra Green

Davis Silis, take a bow. This perfectly choreographed fight sequence with a twist manages to accomplish a hell of a lot in a confined space.An empty carriage on a Victoria Line underground, two men in the throes of a brawl that could have been lifted straight from any action/thriller. Silis knows this and uses it to play with the form of the trope, and how it contrasts with the themes of the song. Asking the question &quot;why do we hurt the ones we love?&quot; without providing a clear-cut answer, the video takes some unexpected twists and turns without ever leaving the carriage.The video is made even more impressive when you know that one of the fighters (Formation&#39;s Will Riston) actually dislocated his arm very early in the shoot, and still pulled out a pretty fantastic performance.

Vaults&#39;&nbsp;version of One Day I&#39;ll Fly Away is the soundtrack for this year&#39;s annual blockbuster John Lewis Christmas ad.&nbsp;It says something for the standalone video - the music video directing debut of choreographer Alexandra Green &ndash; that Buster the boxer dog&#39;s antics&nbsp;on his family&#39;s new trampoline&nbsp;are not missed.This is a wonderfully choreographed piece of work, exploring the many facets of the self. Human bodies undergo&nbsp;metamorphoses to become flowing shapes growing from a centre, and a series of impossible mirror shots further fracture the idea of the self. With costume flowing and sprawling around the dancers, and a dramatically sparse location to boot, the video is a visually striking piece of contemporary dance with a rich, classical twist.

The safety and warmth of a cocoon gets flipped on its head in Davis Silis&#39; new video for Milky Chance.An injured woman is carried to safety to recover&nbsp;and kept in a room in a dilapidated factory. All seems to be going well until those caring for the woman discover her talent for spinning riches from seemingly nowhere.Part fairytale, part extended metaphor, Silis&#39; work is a grim reminder of the selfishness of the human condition. The run-down industrial locations of a post-soviet Latvia serve as a perfect backdrop for a dream of shared riches turned to dust.&nbsp;

Joao Retorta gets deeply intimate in this gorgeous, sensual video for Honne.Exploring the very raw, vulnerable feelings that come with falling in love, this clip features couples of all genders, naked and exploring their partner&#39;s body. Masterfully shot (by DoP Rina Yang) in a 4:3 aspect ratio with subtle but beautiful coloured light, this track and clip really are Good Together. &nbsp;

Romano Pizzichini&rsquo;s unsettling video for Beyond the Wizards Sleeve&#39;s song&nbsp;Black Crows explores the eery tension between two tennis students and their creepy teacher -&nbsp;whose&nbsp;aggressive methods and highly questionable&nbsp;motives&nbsp;causes the&nbsp;girls to enter&nbsp;a very unsportsmanly dynamic.The sinister, almost Giallo-like&nbsp;tone is set with an opening sequence in which one of girls throws a tennis ball at the other, who made to stand&nbsp;defenseless with her hands behind her back.&nbsp;Once the beautifully-dressed tutor&nbsp;pits them against each other, the teacher then performs a Rorscharch test and&nbsp;doles out bizarre and dehumanising&nbsp;punishments.&nbsp;Romano describes the video&nbsp;as, &ldquo;constantly teetering between innocence and brutality, but shot in a matter of fact way.&rdquo; &nbsp;

Joao Retorta creates an unusually impressionistic, even headspinning tribute to&nbsp;UK Garage for&nbsp;Essess&#39;s Trust In Me, featuring Malika. With a format mash-up&nbsp;of film&nbsp;and old school VHS, it&#39;s&nbsp;a nostalgic take on the UKG culture, capturing the clothes, the chemistry and sheer excitement&nbsp;of a classic night out.And it&#39;s also informed by a breathless, almost manic energy, with a brilliantly kinetic edit by Jack Singer. &nbsp;

Sean Paul and Chi Ching Ching create a new dance move and watch as it spreads around Jamaica in this fun documentary-style clip by Jack Newman.The whole video centres around the dance move Crick Neck&nbsp;- from Sean and Ching&#39;s initial conception of the move&nbsp;to a club night climax. The mixed&nbsp;media doc&nbsp;style of the clip gives the whole thing an energy and a spontaneity&nbsp;that&#39;s hard to fake - a cool slice of summer to see you through September.
