Whether or not it&#39;s a genuine one-shot (probably&nbsp;not)&nbsp;Mike Prior&#39;s video&nbsp;for Without Fidel&#39;s John Coffee is cool and fun - particularly the projections. And lo-fi garage rock is definitely back...

Monsters rule in Philippa Bloomfield's promo for Dignan Porch's&nbsp;Forever Unobscured. Home movie&nbsp;VHS shooting creates an tongue-in-cheek Bigfoot feel, as we head for a very lo-fi Godzilla-style showdown in the Sussex countryside. Our monster guys&nbsp;separated only (and rather ineffectually) by the band...

For unsigned UK singer Allen Kerr and his track Shape Me, Jon Olav Stokke and his team set up shop in a filthy, cold and&nbsp;damp warehouse for the promo.Jon&#39;s atmospheric monochrome&nbsp;video - which centres around&nbsp;dancer Bethany Harrison busting fluid moves - makes great use of the natural, muted&nbsp;lighting conditions and the vast open space...

Mike Prior usually edits other people&#39;s videos, but occasionally directs himself to impressive effect, and he has a good thing going with the hard rockers Eager Teeth.He&#39;s&nbsp;made an 80s-style video nasty for the the band&#39;s Constant Entertainment &ndash; which itself&nbsp;is&nbsp;a semi-sequel to his previous Eager Teeth video, for&nbsp;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciLTi7Tvdgc" target="_blank">Lights Out</a>.

Actor Harry Shearer gives a compelling performance as Alice Russell in Steve Glashier&#39;s deadpan comedy for Alice&#39;s Heartbreaker.Arriving at a hotel, Harry methodically lays out the contents of his suitcase, then step by step he begins to dress in drag while being awkwardly interrupted by room service.The video climaxes with the accidental meeting of both Alice and Harry - who is now in full drag...

Hook & The Twin 'That Was A Day' by Hugh Rochfort

HOOK & THE TWIN - THAT WAS A DAY

The 1975 hit the road in Gareth Phillips' promo for Chocolate, taken from their Music For Cars EP. Drawing on the gang mentality of the band - who have known each since a young age - Gareth feeds in some paranoia and loneliness to contrast the uptempo pop of the soundtrack.
"The whole video is like a hyper real version of a care free time, instead of driving about and smoking in a Ford Fiesta its a 1975 Ford Consul" says Gareth.
"Having an experienced producer like Sean Stuart on my side means that problems get solved quickly. On the day the car didn't turn up, Sean managed to magic up the Consul in a very tight situation which actually worked out better as it was the original car from TV show The Sweeney and when it turned up it was pure poetry".

&quot;We wanted to make a fun video for Smiler and let him be himself in a slightly tongue-in-cheek way,&quot; explains Thomas Bryant on his promo for Smiler&#39;s new single Top Of The World.&quot;We wanted to let his personality shine through - which was achieved by him having a good time interacting with both Tawiah and Professor Green. It was a great shoot and ran smoothly, its a simple feel good promo that leaves you with a smile after viewing!&quot;

Emma’s Imagination - Brighter Greener by Steve Glashier

This one is going to upset a few people, especially coming a few weeks after the Tuscon shootings. Actually it was always going to upset them, because Steve Glashier's video by South Central's Day I Die crashes through a moral minefield by enacting a massacre from the viewpoint of the sniper - through the weapons' gunsight-crosshairs, no less.
Not so different to a Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto-type game of course - only it's definitively not animated. And the fact that the viewer becomes the shooter is actually quite chilling - and instructive. Watch this and even the pinkest anti-Palin liberal may find a way to understand why those gun-toting Republicans really want to keep their guns. Its got nothing to do with the Constitution. Shooting things is better than sex!
And South Central walk through the whole thing, in Columbine-esque fashion. It's quite something. Over to you Steve...

Steve Glashier on making the video for South Central's Day I Die
"It's about dying on different levels - both physically and metaphysically. We were also inspired by South Central's album title which was in turn taken from Debord's theory of the 'Society of the Spectacle'. We wanted to create a video which on different levels was a spectacle in itself. We leave it to the audience to evaluate their own emotional response to the 'spectacle before your eyes' - it might be awe, disgust, amusement, shock etc. All these things and more. I guess we are attempting to spark up and activate within the audience some emotion, in an era where violent games such as Call of Duty, Manhunt and GTA are the biggest grossing forms of entertainment. 
"Of course it could be that through desensitization the spectacle is much reduced and you are left unmoved. Hence why you see South Central walk through the whole scene unaffected by the carnage which is happening immediately around them. They are completely oblivious, in the same way that people in our mass media driven society are oblivious to the violence they consume regularly via entertainment. As a result are they more likely to be divorced from the real violence being reported by the media from trouble spots and war zones around the world 
"Put simply South Central appear almost like grim reapers, drifting desensitised through a violent reality propagated by a mass media we all partake of daily, of course in the spectacle you see in 'Day I Die' it is actually you looking through the gun sight, the question is are you, at the same time are you pulling the trigger "

South Central’s Day I Die by Steve Glashier

Firearm and swine-related hip-hop from Shadrack and The Mandem (aka Kg The Comedian and Nicholas Marston). 
It's a music vid spin-off of their lo-fi street sketches seen on ClickReplayTV and YouTube. BOXFRESH came on board to sponsor this buffoonery and Steve Glashier did the rest. 
With a guest appearance by Giggs and (at about four minutes) a couple of very convincing nutters.
