A blazing meteor crashes to earth in Martin De Thurah's beautiful and incredibly atmospheric film for James Blake's new single Retrograde.

A collaboration between A+ and Bacon, Martin's UK and Danish production companies respectively, the promo was shot over a day and a half on the outskirts of Copenhagen - the day before the Mayan's were predicting the demise of planet earth which may have provided for some inadvertent inspiration for the film...

James Blake 'Retrograde' by Martin De Thurah

Floria Sigismondi's previous video for Katy Perry was the SFX-heavy ET, with Kanye West. But now here's the real deal. The One That Got Away is ambitious, romantic, poignant and properly sad.
It's also fairly courageous for the artist to reimagine herself convincingly as a wealthy octogenarian in her own video. The promo oscillates between her past and present as her old, rich self reflects on 'the one that got away' - played by Mexican actor Diego Luna. Props to SFX make-up artist Dominie Till who ages Perry 50-plus years.
