Meji Alabi has directed several videos for Burna Boy, including some proper blockbusters. But have any been as powerful as this?In visualising the sombre sentiments of the Stormzy-featured Real Life, Burna Boy gave Alabi licence to tell a story about the difficulties&nbsp;for Afro-Carribean people in London now. The result is a tour de force; a compelling mini-drama where the complexity of people's lives, navigating what is 'right' and 'wrong', is highlighted by the different routes taken by twin brothers, and a pointless murder.&nbsp;With a standout performances by Devontay and Dijon Graham as the brothers, Alabi&nbsp;creates a world on a West London estate populated with believable&nbsp;characters, sketched into life by his direction and Jaime Ackroyd's camera. Most painfully of all, Alabi stays firmly with the victim, as he dies alone. It is a departure for the director who has become one of the most adept at creating visually exciting pop videos, but a very confident and cinematic&nbsp;one.Alabi even pauses the drama to allow a spoken word section, written and delivered by George The Poet, to add weight to the whole piece, that already includes strong performance elements from Burna Boy and Stormzy. Powerful indeed.[imgtoken data:1]

Being young is a bumpy ride - an emotional highway, the constant battle between you and the outside world, trials and tribulations of love, new friendships, discovering and honing your identity, sexuality, persona, style and desires. It&#39;s a drive towards the future.And that&rsquo;s exactly how Vasilisa Forbes visualises Young, her latest video for GIRLI.

Ciaran Lyons&#39; latest video for Leeds rock outfit Hookworms examines a young salaryman&#39;s unexceptional&nbsp; routine, in all it&#39;s repetition and its minor variations - and lack of personal interaction -&nbsp;with a characteristic graphic sensibility and dry wit.After the rapid&nbsp;vignettes, this relentless cycle come to rest in the past 30 seconds or so, on the man&#39;s face - a picture of confusion and fear. Plenty of time to ponder on the point of it all...&nbsp;The track Static Resistance comes from Hookworms forthcoming Domino release, Microshift.

Ciaran Lyons latest puts new-rockers Otherkin at odds with a fat and self-important old man, who is suitably pocket-sized at the beginning,&nbsp;but is getting bigger all the time.So begins this horrible human&#39;s black and white reign of terror. A simple analogy, in which&nbsp;this Sean Spicer-alike finally gets his comeuppance. Nice work from Lyons, who is on a roll with his distinctive pixellated style and lo-fi FX-driven comedy.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Wandering Hearts 'Wish I Could' by Tom King

Clara Aranovich directs an emotional love story steeped in science fiction mystery for Isaac Gracie.The US-based director made the trip over to the UK to shoot a sweet, surreal story wherein all young girls seemingly in the entire country fall under some strange catatonic spell. Focussing mostly on a primary school and its pupils, we see as a young boy tries with moderate success to awaken his friend.The clip shares a&nbsp;cinematic aesthetic laid out in films like Another Earth,&nbsp;or shows like The OA&nbsp;- tapping into otherworldly ideas of ascension in a beautifully paced short narrative piece.

Shy and reluctant to the stage, Alexandra Savior&nbsp;is haunted by her alter ego Anne-Marie,&nbsp;a brazen 1920s Hollywood vixen, in her latest video for Mirage.Directed by Irrum&nbsp;and beautifully shot by Bryan Koss, the video follows the bookish and introverted singer&nbsp;as she deals with&nbsp;pre-show jitters leading up to&nbsp;her concert. But Anne-Marie has other plans, stealing the limelight with her alluring charm and undeniable&nbsp;stage presence.&nbsp;
