Samuel Douek directs a glossy promo for German artist Tashan.&nbsp;Following the cinematic visual for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/02/28/tashan-oprah-samuel-douek/75174">Oprah</a>&nbsp;back in February, the video for Yoga boasts slick visual effects, luxurious styling and a captivating performance, all in just over two minutes of screen time.&nbsp;Celebrating feminine energy and themes of self-empowerment, the video is a confident and assured presentation, and the product placement of the Womanizer stimulator elevates these vibes - and indeed draws parallels with Douek's <a href="https://www.instagram.com/howlworldwide/">own sex-positive brand</a>, which he runs alongside his directing work.&nbsp;

Samuel Douek directs a cinematic performance promo&nbsp;for Tashan.&nbsp;In the video for Oprah, Tashan faces off ‘The Bad Guy’ in an all-or-nothing, high-stakes astrological poker game. She puts her fate in the hands of the deity Aquarius when betting it all, securing her inevitable victory."It was an amazing experience getting to direct this music video," says&nbsp;Douek. "The song is about being a bad-ass bitch - inspired by the eponymous TV personality - and that natural stardom is something the artist emanates. The aesthetic for the film was inspired by Tashan’s Swiss and Indian heritage and transports us to a surreal future where amber skies tower over cyber cities."The rich colour palettes and inspired art direction help bring the concept to life, and the setups are&nbsp; seamlessly&nbsp;integrated through clever visual effects work.&nbsp;"The VFX were created by the amazing Felix Geen to move between the reality of the poker game and the metaphorical fantasy of intergalactic travel," continues Douek.&nbsp;"We managed to pull off a really ambitious shoot with an incredibly talented crew. From the creative director Anita Chibba (Diet Paratha) to the art director Furmaan Ahmed and stylist Sachin Gogna, we were able to pay tribute to Tashan’s heritage with a crew made up predominantly of South Asian HODs in an authentic way whilst catapulting the film into an otherworldly future."&nbsp;

Dan Massie directs a moving performance promo for Ed Sheeran's Visiting Hours.&nbsp;Shot in a spectacular church location, the visual is similar in execution to the other videos that Massie has produced in this series, but is elevated in its own way, through ethereal, drifting camerawork.&nbsp;Sheeran's performance is top-notch - of course - but also incredibly expressive and emotive, cutting through his happy-go-lucky exterior to drill right into the core of the subject matter.&nbsp;

Jack Savoretti travels from supermarket to countryside&nbsp;in a freewheeling trolley, in&nbsp;Calum Macdiarmid's glossy&nbsp;promo for Secret Life.&nbsp;Escaping the hustle and bustle of the city with a bottle of wine and a thirst for adventure, Savoretti calmly traverses various obstacles to get to his final destination, and does so with style and flair.&nbsp;The slightly bonkers idea is grounded by a sense of optimistic calm, and the very real yearning for some time away from day to day life... and the clever gag never once looks fake or forced.Now where do we get a set of these adventurous wheels?&nbsp;

An ominous presence tracks a number of individuals on the streets and fields of East London, in Brock Neal Roberts' gripping promo for Eli Brown &amp; Talk Show.&nbsp;Paying homage to gritty British cinema - in particular <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Clarke" target="_blank">Alan Clarke</a>'s influential masterpiece Elephant -&nbsp;the video for Trouble is focussed on the individuals who walk briskly through an deserted urban landscape - when they are not congregating in legendary Bethnal Green caff Manzi's -&nbsp;aware that they are being followed by an unknown, unseen force, with tension and fear building throughout.&nbsp;The video is deceivingly&nbsp;simple, with a concept that packs a punch and gets under your skin, with great use of locations, excellent casting and Neal Roberts working with DoP&nbsp;David Foulkes and editor Beth Roberts to build the spooky feel&nbsp;of a nightmare. It's&nbsp;crafted with real flair and imagination.[imgtoken data:1]

In the video for Human Contact, Ethan Graham explores a narrative that follows The Howl &amp; The Hum’s lead singer, Sam, as he journeys through a derelict space where people have all been consumed by technology.In what could be seen as a parallel universe, or dystopian future, people have been so affected that they no longer act or move like humans. Sam gives an engaging performance as he tries to resist the contorted movements of those around him, choreographed by Abdourahman Nije. The haunting track is fuelled by a slow-burning, propulsive beat which builds to a fiery crescendo.
