Eva Michon&#39;s video for Miya Folick is a bit of a rollercoaster. Which isn&#39;t&nbsp;surprising as the whole video takes place on one. But that turns out to be a smart way to showcase the growing drama and sheer intensity of Folick&#39;s voice.

On the basis that getting Sia and Pink performing on camera together is a non-starter&nbsp;- well, Sia on camera these days is a non-starter - Malia James opts for the spectacular with two talented aerial acrobats engaging in a spot of indoor skydiving&nbsp;inside a remarkable lip-up &#39;flight&#39; chamber, where they float in the air with the force of the updraft.The setting and choreography is big enough to cope with the full-on intensity of Pink and Sia&#39;s vocals to the latest banger by the big pop production team.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Eva Michon plays up to the pulsing beat of Right Hook with a sweet and simple visual about a girl that starts to see the ceaseless tempo marked&nbsp;everywhere she turns.&nbsp;It starts with women&#39;s ponytails as they run&nbsp;in&nbsp;the park. In a daze, it follows her to piano class, where she teaches a young boy to play at the exact tempo - only realising when she looks up at the metronome. By the end, she takes control of this obsession&nbsp;and does what any sensible person would do in this situation... hit the club.

Malia James is quickly establishing herself as a new go-to director for mainstream pop videos. Her most recent work for <a href="http://promonews.tv/videos/2016/05/11/honne-ft-izzy-bizu-someone-loves-you-malia-james" target="_blank">Honne &amp; Izzy Bizu</a> is very good indeed, and&nbsp;this one for Hailee Steinfeld - edited by Chris Roebuck at Cut+Run in London - was released in March and clocked up&nbsp;a very healthy amount of views for the Oscar-nominated actress (for her role in the Coen Brothers remake of True Grit)&nbsp;turned singer.&nbsp;

Hailee Steinfeld ft DNCE 'Rock Bottom' by Malia James

A run-and-gun forbidden love story set on the streets of Tokyo laced with some gorgeous ad-hoc imagery is the visual accompaniment to Someone That Loves You by Honne and Izzy Bizu.The story behind the production of this video seems nail-bitingly tense. In 24 hours, director Malia James managed to cast her actress via Instagram,&nbsp;and call&nbsp;in her lead actor from LA - giving him just three hours to get on a plane to a country he&#39;d never set foot in before. So any narrative-enhancing looks of bemusement on his part are probably quite genuine.All this Eastern guerilla-shot loveliness is intercut with a massively colourful performance from Honne and Izzy Bizu that all manages to coalesce with the narrative in a rainbow haze towards the video&#39;s conclusion. Not bad at all for a day&#39;s work really.

The stunning parade&nbsp;of imagery in Jonas &amp; Francois&#39;s spectacular&nbsp;video for&nbsp;Jack White&#39;s&nbsp;Lazaretto&nbsp;includes a screeching Corvette, a seriously raging bull, lots of&nbsp;exploding digital&nbsp;glass and, of course, Jack and his very awesome guitar-playing.&nbsp;It all adds up to&nbsp;a triumph: more commercial, yet more rock &#39;n roll than any video he&#39;s previously done. And it feels like a proper statement of intent. Jack may have quickly apologised for leaked comments about the Black Keys owing their sound to The White Stripes&nbsp;this past week, but this takes on all-comers,&nbsp;designed to destroy all pretenders to his crown. Jack is most certainly back.

Precocious directing duo BRTHR takes a big leap upward with their hip-hop video with a difference for red hot Aussie hip-hop starlet Iggy Azalea&rsquo;s Bounce.
Super-colourful, brilliantly edited and culturally enlightening, BRTHR &ndash; aka Alex Lee and Kyle Wightman &ndash; went to Mumbai in India to add some exoticism and Bollywood glamour to Iggy sexy hip-pop. Very smart move and a very bouncy video&hellip;
