Sammy Rawal directs voguing diva&nbsp;Honey Balenciaga, as a magical chef, creating wonders in the kitchen,&nbsp;in this branded music video for the Kelis-performed&nbsp;Square It - part of a new campaign by&nbsp;leading cheese brand Kraft Singles.In this fast-paced mash-up of voguing and cookery, Honey - star of the HBO reality show Legendary - self-multiplies to make herself as super-creative as possible, while also making impressive moves&nbsp;to the track which was created in a team up with ad agency Johannes Leonardo and maverick singer-songwriter and foodie Kelis.This is described as part of a companywide 'anti-advertising' effort by Kraft Heinz, as a way to modernise its brands, and also a way to celebrate the growth of the Kraft Singles brand during the pandemic - it registered double digit growth for the first time in five years. In preparing to make the video for Square It, Rawal pitched his idea - including&nbsp;the casting of Honey Balenciaga&nbsp;- to the creative team at Johannes Leonardo.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;“From the first briefing, I was in love with the idea and I really vibed with the JL creatives—we shared a lot of references," says Rawal.&nbsp;“My vision was to cast the legendary voguing diva herself, Honey Balenciaga, in an absurd story about a cook hard at work who transforms into a culinary Goddess capable of telekinesis and multiplying herself on command."That everyone embraced my pitch for the video to star a queer talent for a campaign totally unrelated to Pride was incredibly refreshing."

Waley Wang follows up his video for&nbsp;Cool Company's Halos with another bittersweet take on romance, with nods to the oeuvre of Aki Kaurismäki and Jim Jarmusch, for The Black Skirts' Two Days.&nbsp;&nbsp;It's a coming-of-age dark comedy set in the 90’s about a dorky teenager heartbroken after a remorseless breakup. He escapes by fever dreaming about a carefree relationship with a young TV star, but despite his newfound romance as well as a dazzling makeover, things take a distressing turn.Reality and our hapless hero's&nbsp;fertile imagination blur, as Wang rounds up his 80s and 90s influences into an evocative piece with deadpan hipster appeal.&nbsp;It's good stuff. And the track is part of&nbsp;the Korean indie rock artist English language EP Good Luck To You, Girl Scout!,&nbsp;his first release in over two years.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Cool Company narrates the story of a romantic couple's wedding day being struck by an apocalypse, in&nbsp;Waley Wang's genre-bending promo for Halos.&nbsp;Told in a series of slow reveals - and shots in surreal, boldly art-directed sets - the video is inspired by French Cinèma du look, Peter Greenaway, fashion, and Seventies and Eighties horror films.Intercutting vintage, VHS-style segments with a contemporary aesthetic,&nbsp;Alexey Kosorukov's cinematography is the&nbsp;star of the show, with stunning colour palettes, polished lighting and a confident control of&nbsp;the distinct looks within the concept.[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

Maxime Quoilin makes a notable start as a fully-fledged music video director for Meek Mill's collaboration with Justin Timberlake, weaving their performance with a powerful story of personal redemption.Quoilin has built a reputation across disciplines, from photography and graphic design to creative direction and moving image across fashion, commercials and live music tours - including Beyoncé's Formation tour.Now he is taking the next step, with his video for Believe employing an old-school structure, separating the artist performance from the narrative. What is not old-school&nbsp;is how this story of hope is delivered in a gritty, hard-hitting fashion: after witnessing her father's arrest, a young woman turns to drugs, overdoses and almost dies. Her slow but determined recovery leads her to the boxing ring, and a reunion with her father.The video is Quoilin's first since joining Good Company in the US, and becoming represented for commercials by FAMILIA and Lock It In for promos in the UK.

Sean Cartwright delivers a surrealist vision set in a world governed by occult practices, in the video for the hyponotic Espresso Romano.&nbsp;Norwegian producer Anton's&nbsp;dark soundscape is channeled into a dark, surrealist chess match that unfolds through contemporary dance and abstract Pagan imagery. Exploring the way we perceive our desires and sexuality, this post-apocalyptic community&nbsp;encourages putting oneself on display through competition and performance, becoming one with the darkness and fighting for your place in society.&nbsp;Shot on 16mm, the raw and distorted visuals combine with a frenetic strobe light to disorientate the viewer, switching from vignette to vignette at a breathless pace, giving us just a glimpse into the ritualistic customs of this environment.&nbsp;WARNING: This video may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.

Pull out your gum and lick a sledgehammer.&nbsp;Miley Cyrus is outrageous again. Alexandre Moors directs this taboo-busting performance video.A tribute to various women, the progressive video features cameos from activists and role models including her mother Tish Cyrus, along with trans models Casil MacArthur&nbsp;and Aaron Philip, and&nbsp;dancer Amazon Ashley. The progressive performance video features various taboos: images of breastfeeding, menstruation pads, scars, and a slogan that reads: "virginity is a social construct”.&nbsp;It benefits from some lush photography from DOP Natasha Braier (of The Neon Demon) and a lively grade by Ron Sudul.<blockquote>Music videos are the great barometer of popular culture in the 21st century. And if you ever needed evidence, you’d need look no further than Miley Cyrus’ visual canon.</blockquote>In 2017, Cyrus briefly returned to a more country&nbsp;influenced sound, and restrained visual presence to match. It was variously described with all the well intended clichés you might expect: the singer was making “clean”, “honest” music and “leaning into her roots”. But this latest video proves that Cyrus has always been more comfortable as a provocateur.Music videos are the great barometer of popular culture in the 21st century. And if you ever needed evidence, you’d need look no further than Miley Cyrus’ visual canon. Compare the warm reception of Mother’s Daughter to the well-publicised moral outrage that greeted her reinvention in 2013. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2013/sep/10/miley-cyrus-wrecking-ball">"Miley Cyrus's new Wrecking Ball video says young women should be sexually available”</a>, read a typically hysterical headline -&nbsp;in The Guardian, no less.There were some genuine criticisms of Bangerz era. In fact, her performance at the MTV VMAs was arguably the agent that propelled conversations about cultural appropriation into the mainstream. But the majority of the criticism levelled at Cyrus was from a public that simply weren’t ready for a female star expressing her sexuality so candidly. This video is equally provocative, at least to a mainstream audience. But when the worst Fox News can say is that the video&nbsp;<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/miley-cyrus-mothers-daughter-music-video-mixed-reviews">“draws mixed reactions”</a>, it makes you think. And when The Daily Mail calls it&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-7205221/Miley-Cyrus-snuggles-mom-Tish-beautifully-diverse-Mothers-Daughter-video.html">“beautifully diverse”</a>, it occurs to you quite how dramatically culture has changed in a short six years.

This terrific video directed and edited by Sam Shannon harnesses dual and opposing masculine and feminine energies, through the performances&nbsp;of dancers Marcus Braggs and Angeliq Brock,&nbsp;for&nbsp;Brooklyn-based electronic artist Conrad Clifton.&nbsp;The track&nbsp;Hunter Gather-Her begins with&nbsp;vocals sampled from South African healer, Credo Mutwa, which highlights the essential and traditional role of women as powerful decision makers and revered leaders in his culture. The dancers&#39; movement on deserted nighttime streets of industrial New York, is intercut with an unknown&nbsp;forest, everything captured in an expressive range of colours - thanks to great work by DoP Arthur Woo.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

A remarkable visual accompaniment to Tibetan singer Yesh&rsquo;s debut track&nbsp;VII&nbsp;by directors Jason Sondock and Simon Davis &ndash; aka rubberband.Teaming up with creative director Bryan Wolff and art director Tal Midyan, the New York-based filmmaking duo produced and directed the video which follows three generations of women in a haunting and symbolic exploration of memory, the afterlife and finding peace in the absence of those we love.The directors are&nbsp;also working on adapting the project into both a physical and online installation (thisisyesh.com), as Sondock explains:&nbsp;&ldquo;The interactive website recognizes your IP address, and every time you visit the site or refresh the player it generates an entirely custom re-edit of the music video via a proprietary algorithm we&rsquo;ve developed.:Conceptually, it plays on the idea of memory and how our memories come to us in entirely unpredictable and nonlinear sequences. It has roughly 6.2 billion different permutations, roughly one for every human on earth.&rdquo;
