Jordan Stephens, once of Rizzle Kicks, plays Tiger, the inveterate stoner who finds himself on a weird, weed-related voyage of discovery in Jamie Whitby's marvellous short film to celebrate the 25th anniversary of a landmark Warp Records release - Nightmares On Wax's Smokers Delight.&nbsp;When Tiger discovers he has been locked out of his flat&nbsp;after a night of serious toking with his mates, it triggers a series of increasingly outlandish&nbsp;episodes - which moves from stoner-noir to full-on acid trip when our hero tumbles into full 2D animation.Music from Nightmare On Wax's classic 1995 album is an unobtrusive motif throughout the film, written as well as directed by Whitby. It is something of a departure&nbsp;from his largely conceptual work in music videos, but it shows that comedy-drama, mixed with a splash of pure surrealism, is his forté. He gets great performances from a talented cast, led by Stephens - possibly channelling Jeff Bridges&nbsp;in Lebowski - and has been rewarded with a nomination at this year's UKMVAs, in the&nbsp;Best Special Video Projects category, for his efforts.

Hak Baker is having a bit of a wobbly and Jon E Price has caught it on camera and turned it into a moody film.Wobbles On Cobbles&nbsp;plays like a London lockdown lullaby of sorts, so Price has fittingly created a promo with dreamlike visuals and gentle camera movements to match, around a combination of the recording and Baker's live performance of the song.Price’s recent projects with Baker have included a music documentary and live tape sessions for the Levi's Your Voice. Your Way&nbsp;campaign. Here he captures the singer-songwriter's easy charisma in a more reflective place than his previous music videos, as a lone soul during lockdown.It offers more&nbsp;evidence of Baker's unique role in London's musical landscape, as a troubadour, ploughing his own furrow, chronicling real life during hard times.&nbsp;An important, original voice in the great city.

Hak Baker 'Wobbles On Cobbles' by Jon E Price

Hak Baker - Wobbles On Cobbles (Live Session)

Bombay Bicycle Club's frontman&nbsp;Jack Steadman is having the day from Hell in Louis Bhose's&nbsp;emotional one-shot video for Everything Else Has Gone Wrong.&nbsp;From a bird's eye view perspective, we see Steadman in a mangled position as a variety of passers-by inexplicably start to kick and stomp on him, whilst rooting through what's left of his possessions and snatching them away. And as he continues to stare straight up at the camera and perform, the hustle and bustle around him is never ending, offering no respite from the evils of the world, even in his darkest hour.And it gets really dark.&nbsp;The transition between each set of characters is clever, as ambulance workers attempt to save his life before he is unceremoniously wrapped in a plastic sheet and buried.Ultimately, the core message is impossible to ignore:&nbsp;when you are down and out, some people will treat you like you no longer exist. But it's the people who lift you up and help dig you out of your (quite literal in this case) hole that are the true heroes.&nbsp;Echoing the&nbsp;vibe&nbsp;of Radiohead's Just from almost twenty-five years ago, this video is an updated and fresh take on the one-shot concept, packed full of intelligent imagery and emotional clout.&nbsp;

Lucinda Belle 'Where Have All The Good Men Gone?' by John Turner

In Greg Davenport&#39;s thoroughly enjoyable video for former Beta Band frontman Steve Mason&#39;s A Lot Of Love, we witness the familiar scenario of a British Cabinet minister in very hot water, with his world, and a lifetime&#39;s work to rise up the greasy pole about to come crashing down, at the hands of a fearsome, Paxman-esque TV interviewer.&nbsp;If this covers similar ground to British political dramas and comedies from Yes Minister to The Thick Of It, Greg Davenport definitely puts his own spin on things, as the minister takes a course of action that would even leave Malcolm Tucker speechless....Greg says: &quot;It&#39;s one of my favourite ideas this - the story is of a much-maligned, unloved and aging politican under intense media pressure in the midst of a scandal... how will he react?&quot;&nbsp;Shot by Ben Fordesman, and with choreography from Holly Blakey &ndash; who also choreographed the recent Russ Chimes video &ndash; the video hugely benefits from a great performance from Tim Heath as the doomed politician, and Jeremy Drakes as his fearsome interrogator, drawing on the poignancy of Mason&#39;s soundtrack to brilliant effect.&nbsp;&nbsp;
