Following the brilliant promo for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2023/05/09/mette-mamas-eyes-camille-summers-valli/81447">Mama's Eyes</a>&nbsp;earlier this year, Camille Summers-Valli&nbsp;and METTE reunite for an equally riveting follow-up for Van Gogh - this time demonstrating the dancer-turned-singer's on-screen charisma through a series of jaw-dropping transformations.The visual sees METTE embody a cast of eccentric characters, from a beaten businessman through to a vintage movie star - and the whole spectrum in between. And as with Mama's Eyes, the edit plays a crucial part in the video, with editor Vid Price match-cutting different versions of METTE to gain the maximum visual impact of her changes from one character to another.Featuring a quirky clash of character acting, offbeat styling and&nbsp;completely absorbing performance,&nbsp;it's impossible to tear your eyes away from.&nbsp;

Noel Paul teams up with math rock tyros black midi to create an&nbsp;extraordinary visual for the latest release for their new&nbsp;album Hellfire - released today -&nbsp;bringing the outlandish lyrics of Sugar/Tzu to life as&nbsp;a brutal, utterly surreal&nbsp;boxing match.Visceral and colourful in equal measure, with pulsatingly textural cinematography by Jake Scott, Paul has created a scenario that places the&nbsp;action within&nbsp;the untethered logic of a dream - or nightmare. It's a mesmerizing visual accompaniment to an&nbsp;intense&nbsp;stream-of-unconsciousness from vocalist Geordie Greep, that's tied closely to the lyrics' off-kilter, wildly random subject matter.[imgtoken data:1]Greep makes as close to an appearance in the video as you get from the band themselves - providing lipsync to the&nbsp;rhesus monkey that acts as master of ceremonies for the contest. And in the song, this lurid display of pugilistic&nbsp;prowess&nbsp;is interrupted by the actions of a young boy who approaches ringside, and pulls out a shooter.The campaign for the new black midi album has already produced two videos that are blinders - Gustaf Holtenäs's video for Hell; Maxim Kelly's for Eat Men Eat - and this is just as good. It really packs a punch.[imgtoken data:2]

black midi 'Sugar/Tzu' by Noel Paul

Black-Midi--'Sugar/tzu'-by-Noel-Paul

Yoni Lappin puts guest vocalist Slowthai front and centre in a mesmerizing near-one shot&nbsp;for&nbsp;his latest video for Mura Masa.The focus of their track Deal Wiv It is gentrification - Slowthai raps about waking up, arguing with his sisters and going to the pub to buy a pint, only to find out gentrification has doubled the price. He's referring to&nbsp;life in Britain, of course, but visually, it's a bit different. This is the second of two Lappin-directed videos for Mura Masa shot in Belgrade, and there is a subtle juxtaposition of the location in the song and the clarly non-British location in the video.But fundamentally, this is all about the livewire energy and sheer charisma of Slowthai&nbsp;captured in a brilliant long take, on 35mm at a much higher than normal frame rate.&nbsp;He tears through a street scene, unabashedly the centre of attention with acrobatic kicks, dancing&nbsp;and jumping&nbsp;around. Slowthai's manic persona is a genuine marvel, his&nbsp;style and attitude are infectious and unforgettable. And filming him in slow motion just makes him more fascinating.&nbsp;Shot by Jake Scott,&nbsp;the raw,&nbsp;almost dirty aesthetic matches the track and concept perfectly, and the autumnal colour scheme brings out the subdued colours of the Belgrade estates and surrounding areas. And a sort of meta-awareness of the camera develops into part of the concept: Slowthai ends up leaping into the camera car - and onto his mate&nbsp;Alex Crossan, aka Mura Masa.&nbsp;

Mura Masa ft. Slowthai 'Deal Wiv It' by Yoni Lappin

Mura-Masa-&amp;-Slowthai-'Deal-Wiv-It'-by-Yoni-Lappin

Mura Masa explores the state of our youth in No Hope Generation, directed by Yoni Lappin.&nbsp;Shot in Belgrade, Serbia, the striking visual explores society's obsession with nostalgia, and its abilities (and limits) in helping us frame our emotions and memories. Focusing on a series of different characters, the video opens with two girls on a bed talking to each other. One girl shares her fear of getting old and dying, pouring her heart out, followed by the other asking "Can I post that?".&nbsp;This reflection on the lack of empathy and complete chaos that the digital age has ushered in is represented through various vignettes. In another scene, an older woman is bringing tea and biscuits to her family, a traditional memory for many of us. However, the family in this household are completely ignorant to each other's presence, some of them playing with VR headsets, other glued to the desktop computer.Beautifully shot by Jake Scott, the emphasis on raw, daylit footage creates a dreamlike vibe, the overblown highlights in many scenes contributing to the washed out, hyperreal footage. In comparison to many dystopic concepts, which utilise dark, dreary cinematography, this project is much more natural. This helps create a feeling that this reality isn't far off at all, and if we were to blink we could miss its inception. There isn't a huge leap between our lives now and the scenarios on screen, and Lappin's emphasis on this fact makes it truly disturbing.&nbsp;

Mura Masa 'No Hope Generation' by Yoni Lappin

Mura-Masa--'No-Hope-Generation'-by-Yoni-Lappin

Twenty-five years ago, Soul Asylum&#39;s Runaway Train&nbsp;music video aired on MTV. Moving and gritty, the video directed by Tony Kaye showed images of actual missing children, 21 of whom were then recovered. Collaborating with agency M/H VCCP, Jake Scott has now directed a first-of-its-kind music video that updates with children from the National Center for Missing &amp; Exploited Children (NCMEC) database, based on where you watch it.&quot;I was a fan of the original Runaway Train video,&quot; comments Jake Scott. &quot;It really showed how music has the power to effect change. If one child is identified as a result of this video, then it will be worth it. Let&#39;s hope it leads to hundreds of thousands being reunited with their families or given a new life in which they feel safe, seen and heard.&quot;&quot;The video is a game changer,&quot; says NCMEC President and CEO John Clark. &quot;It highlights critical issue runaways face and will show real pictures of missing children. By creating and sharing this video, everyone has the ability to make a difference in their communities. It&#39;s truly incredible.&quot;The video release comes ahead of National Missing Children&#39;s Day this Saturday, 25 May.

Noel Paul of That Go&#39;s video for Rae Morris is a dreamy, artful dance in the wilderness.With dizzying camerawork that defies a sense of spatial awareness or internal geography, the clip focuses around Rae, dancing almost ritualistically on an island at dusk lit by a square of bright white light. Accompanied by a set of cloaked cohorts, Rae sings her song as the camera dances its way around her and the surrounding epic landscape.There&#39;s something hugely primal about the video - an epic and ritualistic dance that looks to a quiet and beautiful earth. The dusk of an&nbsp;old life and the rebirth of something new at dawn.

Aesthetic is the name of the game in this Dior/Gener8ion collaboration directed by François Rousselet.In a car park full of inexplicably gorgeous cars, two gangs of inexplicably gorgeous people meet for an inexplicably gorgeous&nbsp;dance battle. This is the magic of a fashion film - a hyperreal world that we really wish existed, because wouldn&#39;t it be nice if somewhere, right now, this exact scene was happening in real life?Meticulously planned choreography by Holly Blakey, dynamic lighting setups and a colour palette that evokes the Neon Noir look pioneered by films like Drive, this music-video-branded-content hybrid launching a latest type of Poison (Dior&#39;s perfume brand) even manages to throw some comedy elements in amongst the sheer beauty.

Gener8ion-'No-Rebel'-by-François-Rousselet

Yoni Lappin brings us a stylish snapshot portrait of the lives of London&#39;s young people just trying to kill time. Parties, petty theft, bikes, and blocks of flats... familiar to many as they struggle through growing up, finding out who they are and attempt to have a good time in the process.Lappin here boils down youthful mischief to a pure, joyous essence, merging documentary and sweet drama,&nbsp;and making familiar London terrain seem like a sparse and beautiful domain occupied solely by the characters in the video.

Can Evgin gives a contemporary look and feel to this infectious Paul McCartney remix - dancing 1985 right into 2016.This video - shot by Jake Scott, choreographed by Aaron Sillis &ndash;&nbsp;provides the perfect blend of&nbsp;Colour, Choreography and Cool to this incredibly catchy track. A pair of dancers intertwine with one another through washes of neon colours, all whilst &#39;70s-vintage Macca croons away on a set of TVs.It&#39;s a stylishly executed video&nbsp;that allows both Paul&#39;s archival performance and the new track itself to shine, complimented by the great neon-clad set&nbsp;design and minimal simplicity of the costuming. The two contrasting pieces of footage glitch and intertwine - becoming one.

The new video for Desire, directed by Years &amp; Years&#39; regular collaborator Fred Rowson, taps into the preoccupations of lead singer Olly Alexander and has caused a mini-furore for its depiction of all variations of consensual&nbsp;sexuality. And the fact they have staged a mini-orgy,&nbsp;of course...Quite apart from <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/35724844/years--years-ollys-shiny-pop-video-love-for-gay-relationships" target="_blank">the media attention</a> it&#39;s generating, the video confirms Alexander&#39;s pop nous - and with Fred Rowson as his foil, shows he&#39;s increasingly&nbsp;comfortable&nbsp;expressing himself in the&nbsp;medium. And that pink overcoat looks like a very smart styling choice.[imgtoken data:1]
