Troy Roscoe directs a visual spectacle for Burna Boy, with a clear nod to the great American hip-hop videos of the '90s.The video for Sittin' On Top Of The World balances innovative techniques and filmmaking flair with real charm and star quality and one that perfectly captures the spirit of a bygone&nbsp;era, with the glossiness of contemporary music video aesthetics.&nbsp;it's another brilliant piece of work by Roscoe,&nbsp;in an upwards trajectory of great videos -&nbsp;anchored by a great central performance by Burna Boy."Drawing inspiration from the music videos of that golden era, we infused the video with lowriders, red cups, wide lenses, and a vibrant yet grainy grade - creating an iconic masterpiece with a touch of surrealism for a modern twist," explains Roscoe.&nbsp;"Burna's natural electric and charismatic presence on camera made filming a breeze, allowing us to capture each scene effortlessly and shoot the abundance of scenes in just a few hours."The styling played a pivotal role in shaping the video's outcome, as we aimed to capture the essence of the 90s with baggy jeans and vibrant ensembles reminiscent of that iconic era - so the stylist Annum deserves a honourable mention for her solid efforts."

Shan Phearon directs a hypnotic fantasy for Jazmin Bean, featuring&nbsp;Lucy Loone.&nbsp;Combining clever practical elements, novel visual effects and imaginative CGI world-building, the video follows the two artists as they cruise around an otherworldly environment, causing carnage at every turn.[imgtoken data:1]The unique aesthetic is achieved through an innovative hybrid of digital and 35mm fused into one image, which heightens the surreality of the eccentric concept.&nbsp;A pastel-pink nightmare with huge ambition, it's a brilliant piece of work from Phearon and team.[imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;

Chris Fowles directs a poignant promo for Cavetown's Fall In Love With A Girl, featuring&nbsp;Beabadoobee.The video sees the artist - real name Robin Skinner - create a series of narrative setups in a dollhouse, using small figurines and a selection of to-scale props. One of those small figurines follows the song's lead - they are placed in a conventional&nbsp;heterosexual relationship; but each time Cavetown's character returns to the doll's house, they have mysteriously turned away from this stereotypical set-up.&nbsp;Then a turning point changes the course of the narrative - triggered by the arrival of Bea, when Robin is absent. The figurine can then embrace the&nbsp;same-sex relationship they dream&nbsp;of.[imgtoken data:1]Fowles shows impressive storytelling craft in making this all work. He approaches it in an&nbsp;an accessible, artistic way,&nbsp;and DoP Terrence Wilkins' superb cinematography - both in and out of the dollhouse - elevates the entire project. The performances of the artists also strike&nbsp;the right note.&nbsp;&nbsp;"I was so excited when this brief came in,"&nbsp;says Fowles. "The track was such an earworm and an incredible chance to work with artists like Robin and Bea, who I’ve been a fan of for a while."The video is a playful lesson in not being able to control who you fall in love with. An attempt to control your destiny and finding (or in this case, creating) the perfect person."[imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;

Clean Bandit's Jack Patterson collaborates with Eric Myers to direct the heartfelt video for Everything But You, in aid of the Campaign Against Living Miserably.The video boldly addresses the subject of depression and suicidal thoughts with a combination of grim, gritty realism and uplifting fantasy - and perhaps controversially depicts a scene of attempted suicide with has necessitated the video opening with a 'trigger warning'.At the heart of the video is a relationship story - and dance sequence -&nbsp;between the young man at the end of his tether, and the magical elf-like female alien who saves him. She shares the same appearance, and flying ability, as Clean Bandit's Jack and Grace, and vocalist A7s, in the Avatar-style performance set-up.[imgtoken data:1]Eric Myers is known for his work as a DoP, but in this case he hands over that role to Rick Joaquim, who excels in bringing two contrasting visual styles into one package.&nbsp;And ultimately the story delivers a strongly optimistic message, as explained by Clean Bandit in their support for CALM."The message of Everything But You is that there is always hope, always a reason for living. No matter how you feel right now," comments the band. "That’s why, together with @thecalmzone we want to tell anyone and everyone who can’t see a way out: <a href="https://www.thecalmzone.net/stay/" target="_blank">Stay</a>."&nbsp;

Gino Fernandez explores a sugar daddy's psychedelic trip in Reservations, his second collaboration with Madison Paris.&nbsp;Hypnotic and ethereal, the visual takes place at a large manor house, where Madison and friends take a rich old man hostage, forcing him into a trip washed with hallucinatory visions and galactic fever dreams.&nbsp;DoP Terrence Wilkins masterfully contrasts&nbsp;beautiful composition and lighting with the darker themes and undertones, creating a dichotomic aesthetic that brings the concept to life.&nbsp;Fernandez not only takes on the role of director, but also shows off his VFX and editing chops in the video, resulting in a project that is slick, contemporary and just a little bit weird...&nbsp;
