Rani feels the music in Michael Baldwin's video for her team-up with Norwegian duo Kream.It's a&nbsp;conceptual performance video, where the vibrations of the instruments are connected to a futuristic blue bath, the water pulsating along with the bass.With strong performances and spot-on art direction from&nbsp;Anthony Neale, the video feels current and exciting, and is as instantly replayable as the track it accompanies.

It&#39;s Take That, but not quite as you&#39;ve ever seen them before.Mike Baldwin sends Gary, Mark and Howard through a&nbsp;hyperreal mishmash of visual styles, throws them a few instruments and, bingo - he&#39;s made a rollicking video for Out Of Our Heads, with a&nbsp;lighthearted, Sixties psycheledia-lite vibe.The guys, particularly Gary, buy into this lighthearted family-friendly&nbsp;version of befuddlement. And the feeling that this could have&nbsp;popped from an old TV show, like The Monkees, is emphasised&nbsp;by their brief appearance in cartoon form. Maybe they could be the new Gorillaz...

Bea Miller&#39;s big performance of I Wanna Know - her collaboration with NOTD - becomes a real showstopper&nbsp;in Michael Baldwin&#39;s impressive video.There&#39;s nothing new about a singer being multiplied courtesy of motion control, but when it works&nbsp;well its always mesmerising - and that&#39;s the case here. As clones of Bea Miller start appearing in a warehouse space, Baldwin ratchets up the intensity of her performance, and the video.&nbsp;

When The Wandering Hearts&#39; arrive in a one-horse town to do&nbsp;a show, there&#39;s only one problem. There are no&nbsp;people, let alone horses, to watch them.Michael Baldwin plonks the Hearts in a Wild West ghost town in his video&nbsp;for Devil. But then the band&#39;s rollicking performance gets the ghosts to come out and play.&nbsp;

Director&nbsp;Mike Baldwin has our hearts melting in this touching music video for&nbsp;The Vamps&#39;&nbsp;Middle Of The Night.The video is fairly simple but very affecting, centered around&nbsp;a couple who are breaking up&nbsp;and communicating exclusively through sign language to the lyrics of the song. It also sees the guys of the band, onstage, channeling all the youthful energy. Yep, that&#39;s&nbsp;basically the concept.&nbsp;But see if you can watch it until the end without going,&nbsp;&quot;aw...&quot;&nbsp;

Boybands just can&#39;t get a moment&#39;s peace these days can they?Mike Baldwin&#39;s clip for The Tide certainly compounds that theory. The band, innocently performing to an empty warehouse, start to notice fans peering round corners at them (a site to which they look suitably weirded-out). Before long though, they realise that they should probably embrace such adoration, and thus the whole thing turns into a lovely party! A fun performance video with a few pretty cool tricks from the drummer thrown in for good measure.

Mike Baldwin&#39;s&nbsp;video for&nbsp;Jahmene&#39;s&nbsp;Is This The Time? delivers on a concept with universal appeal. It&nbsp;sees two strangers fall for each other in one glance, which&nbsp;sets off a sequence of imaginary meetings between the pair. Forests, train stations and a white abstracted space are all places they visit in the span of a few seconds...&quot;The narrative is deliberately broken and fragmented,&quot; says Baldwin.&nbsp;&quot;But essentially it&#39;s a series of abstract visuals about the &#39;what if&#39; moment of seeing someone you are instantly attracted to, and the random subconscious thoughts that fire rapidly through your mind in those fleeting seconds.&rdquo;

Rick Astley is back, with his biggest hit since the good old days of Stock Aitken Waterman. And Angels On My Side comes equipped with a video by Mike Baldwin that is a pitch-perfect mix of music, dance and action-comedy, that has you rooting for Rick as a unfussily cool,&nbsp;charmed&nbsp;everyman.It starts with Rick hung up in the dangerous end of&nbsp;some sketchy gangster dealings at a cargo container park.&nbsp;He&#39;s in the backseat of a car with two burly, fearsome&nbsp;men - who somehow have failed to notice Rick&#39;s Angels - in the form of&nbsp;50s leather-jacket clad dancing&nbsp;girls (from dance troupe&nbsp;Sparkle Motion), are hanging out by a container, and break out in&nbsp;Grease-style formation, whenever Astley breaks into the chorus.When&nbsp;the whole affair comes to a head, as the&nbsp;gangster boss&nbsp;struts out from an&nbsp;alley, the girls swoop in, and get Rick out of harms way. It&#39;s silly, but it&#39;s also superior&nbsp;entertainment&nbsp;from Mike Baldwin, who after a long break, is now back&nbsp;on a roll in music videos.

Michael Baldwin has captured singer Andy Brown&#39;s&nbsp;touching wedding proposal - in the form of a music video - for his band&nbsp;Lawson&#39;s song Where My Love Goes.Handsomely shot by two camera crews, the video features the band playing in a church,&nbsp;performing the romantic ballad while Joey - Andy&#39;s&nbsp;unsuspecting girlfriend - takes pictures. Then, towards the end of the song, some&nbsp;lovely lighting signage in cursive is&nbsp;revealed,&nbsp;asking for her hand in marriage. (Aww.)The heartwarming little video was elegantly pulled off through plenty of planning,&nbsp;as Michael Baldwin&nbsp;explains:&nbsp;&quot;Andy wanted to capture the surprise of the proposal in-camera so we had to plan the day like a wedding itself to make sure we didn&#39;t blow our &#39;cover.&#39;&nbsp;I didn&#39;t want to be responsible for messing up his moment! It all went according to plan (phew) and I think the emotion of the day -&nbsp;and relief -&nbsp;was captured in the final video.&quot;

Michael Baldwin has directed this sultry performance video for British singer-songwriter&nbsp;Nathan Sykes&#39; song Give It Up, which sees the artist as he wines, dines and&nbsp;hooks up with his attractive love interest.In regards to the video, Michael says&nbsp;&quot;the concept was&nbsp;Nathan&#39;s and he was very specific about what we shot. Considering the budget was very limiting and the turnaround so quick, it&#39;s great credit to the production team and crew for helping make this look much more expensive than the money we had.&rdquo;

New artist Lucy Spraggan&#39;s song Mountains is about striving to achieve one&#39;s dreams, however difficult - which inspires a lighthearted yet effective and touching approach from director Michael Baldwin.The ambitions of several young people are represented by unfeasibly large objects - like a boy&#39;s guitar, far&nbsp;too big to carry easily. And these are all real objects - created by propmakers Plunge. &nbsp;

Michael Baldwin slips over to the States to direct this fun, playful piece for Olly Murs' single Troublemaker. 
Racking up almost 7 million hits on Youtube and currently sitting pretty at No. 1 in the UK chart, the promo is set in surburban Los Angeles, with a Miami shot performance from guest vocalist Flo Rida. 
Baldwin brings his strong character-driven directing style to bear with an energetic and humour-filled narrative complimenting Olly's cheeky performance.

Mike Baldwin delves deep into his box of tricks and pulls out a conceptual piece of work for Scottish rock band Twin Atlantic's Yes I Was Drunk.
Shot around Glasgow's Queens Park district featuring a cast of characters flying through the air in slow-motion, the promo echoes the introspecitve melancholy in the songs lyrics and instrumentation.
"This is the sense I first got from hearing the song - a kind of beautiful melancholy," says Mike about his Twin Atlantic clip. "People who are stuck in a moment with time deliberately stretched over the course of the promo."
