Tanu Muiño takes us on a surreal trip behind-the-scenes of a vaudevillian travelling circus, in this whimsical promo for Harry Styles.&nbsp;The video acts as a final farewell to the Harry's House album campaign, which has brought with&nbsp;it a string of hits and videos - including the massive hit and multi-awardwinning Muino-directed video&nbsp;for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2022/04/14/harry-styles-it-was-tanu-muino/75920">As It Was</a>&nbsp;- although it was actually shot a year ago.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;&nbsp;The theatrical, larger-than-life energy seen on Styles's&nbsp;international tour is on full display here, as he takes on the role of showman, interacting with different performers in a cheeky, happy-go-lucky way. There's also plenty of wirework magic to admire, with soaring flying shots and&nbsp;tightrope stunts, all in a day's work for this performer.&nbsp;A wonderful way to close one of the most notable artist releases in recent memory, and a welcome return to Muiño and Styles's collaborative relationship to close the loop.[imgtoken data:2]&nbsp;

Doja Cat introduces her striking new era with a suitably surreal, otherworldly promo from Tanu Muino.In the video for Attention, we see the artist strut down LA streets, dodging aggressive passers by as she confidently sticks to her lane, unmoving and unbothered.&nbsp;With a surreal, late 90's aesthetic and more than a touch of horror vibes, it's a bold, unabashed visual that&nbsp;commands attention, and is delightfully offbeat throughout.&nbsp;

Tanu Muino brings us the first outstanding British music video event of 2023 with Sam Smith's unabashed, splendidly theatrical and joyfully outrageous video for I'm Not Here To Make Friends.Exuberant,&nbsp;eccentric, and defiantly brazen, this sees Sam Smith dispensing with any last vestige of previous public incarnations and embracing their queer superstar status with gusto - but also with a healthy self-knowing nod and a wink.Sam arrives by helicopter to a historic countryside manor, joining&nbsp;a gregarious crowd to engage is an extravagant costume party for the ages, over an inspirational sample of RuPaul before the disco beat of this surefire smash kicks in. And eyebrows&nbsp;are soon being raised...[imgtoken data:1]There is dancing. There are some extraordinary outfits. There's rowdy behaviour. And there is some very suggestive things going on, including a scene that may possibly be inspired by Frankie Goes To Hollywood's video for Relax!Throughout is the stunning array of costumes and looks, and Sam's playful and sexy performance, which dazzles in every vignette. They are clearly having the time of their lives.&nbsp;Bringing together so many different layers and inspirations - including a knowing nod to Steven Klein's&nbsp;promo for Gaga's Alejandro&nbsp;- the video oozes self-love and an excitable confidence, and is the perfect release to complement Gloria, Smith's just-released new album.It just ticks all the boxes it's supposed to tick - and that is really down to the genius of Tanu Muino. She just knows what a pop video like this should do, and achieved it, from start to finish.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Tanu Muino directs a bold dance&nbsp;promo for Elton John and Britney Spears collab Hold Me Closer.&nbsp;The update to the iconic track Tiny Dancer comes complete with a refreshing video, effortlessly joyous and celebratory, with a brilliant use of colour, depicting several pairs of dancers in beautiful locations around the world.[imgtoken data:1]With event songs like this, the visuals can often feel incomplete without the artists in them, however Muino and team ensure that all eyes are on the beauty of the choreography - by LA-based choreographer Jacob Jonas - and captivating locations.[imgtoken data:2]The resulting project more than makes up for their absence. Beautifully shot by Muino's regular collaborator Nikita&nbsp;Kuzmenko - also nominated at the inaugural Best DoP Award at this year's UKMVAs - and brilliantly edited by Carlos Font Clos - it offers a marvellous, and emotional new perspective to this classic&nbsp;song.&nbsp;

Foals frontman&nbsp;Yannis Philippakis is trapped in a choreographed cycle of hedonism, in Tanu Muino's brilliant promo for 2am.&nbsp;In the video,&nbsp;Philippakis is locked in a game of cat and mouse with a mysterious woman, who he follows through a maze of whimsical studio environments, intermittently finding himself in the middle of eccentric, Gondry-esque set pieces.&nbsp;Exploding with vibrant set design, avant-garde styling and wonderfully bizarre choreography, the video is a rollercoaster of emotions played out on a massive scale.It's another triumph for Muino, showing that the director who provided exploded onto the scene&nbsp;last year with videos&nbsp;for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/04/01/lil-nas-x-montero-call-me-your-name-tanu-muino/70170">Lil Nas X,</a> <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/02/09/cardi-b-tanu-muino/69383">Cardi B </a>and <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/11/19/post-malone-weeknd-one-right-now-tanu-muino/73902">Post Malone</a>&nbsp;- leading to her winning&nbsp;Best Director at the UKMVAs last year, is alo tremendously versatile.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/11/19/post-malone-weeknd-one-right-now-tanu-muino/73902">&nbsp;</a>&nbsp;

Tanu Muino takes motion control&nbsp;to a new level, in her breathless promo for Monatik, featuring&nbsp;Lida Lee&amp;Niino.&nbsp;We've seen an explosion of mo-co rig use&nbsp;in music videos this year, but Muino has taken things one step further, by securing the artist - as opposed to a camera - to the Bolt arm.&nbsp;In the midst of a frenetic, futuristic set of performance vignettes, Monatik,&nbsp;Lee and Niino are captured through a variety of dizzying camera moves and angles, heightened by neon strobes and cutting-edge robots projecting vibrant lasers onto their bodies.&nbsp;

UKMVA-nominated Tanu Muino creates the ultimate love fest in her new sweet and sexy&nbsp;video for Yungblud's Cotton Candy.Things get pretty hot pretty quickly in this richly stylised and colourful promo, where Yungblud just cannot help being at the centre of a very sexy party, whether at home, or in a bathroom, or enjoying cake with leopards (you just have to watch)&nbsp;.There's an awful lot of old fashioned snogging going on too in this candified world -&nbsp;and Muino pulls back the curtain on the video at the end, to have a little more fun.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A mysterious masked figure makes his way through a stark Soviet landscape in Frank Borin and&nbsp;Ivanna Borin's video for Zayn, R3hab and&nbsp;Jungleboi.Produced from a concept written by Zayn himself, we see the mysterious figure lead a revolution, before sacrificing himself and destroying everyone. In parallel with the current zeitgeist, the themes of uprising and taking back control are imprinted upon every scene, as well as the exploration of dictatorships and oppression.&nbsp;Shot in Kiev, the breathtaking urban scenery is a perfect backdrop to the concept - gritty and almost post-apocalyptic.&nbsp;Nikita Kuzmenko's sweeping camera movements and drone shots add a cinematic flair to the project, and a cast of dozens of young rebels adds a huge amount of production value.

Rosalía returns with the flamenco-flavoured Juro Que and an almost folk song-traditional expression of chaste devotion to her imprisoned love - which has been visually interpreted very stylishly indeed by Tanu Muino.This sumptuous production combines the conventions of the pop video with musical theatre. Rosalía, in her boudoir, is connected to her jailbird boyfriend (Omar Ayuso)&nbsp;in his cell, via the device of security glass separating inmates from their loved ones on prison visits.The Spanish siren's charismatic presence is always something to behold but here she is more alluring yet more unattainable than ever. She’s promised herself to another - who’s probably a very bad guy...

Katy Perry and her real life dog Nugget takes us on an emotional and surreal journey surrounding the trials and tribulations of a "Westminster Dog Show" type world in&nbsp;Tanu Muino's video for Small Talk.Super-colourful - as you might expect from a KP video - with a mixture of&nbsp;80s and almost futuristic&nbsp;styling from Phoenix Mellow, the video feels decidely anachronistic&nbsp;and is intriguing from the very start.&nbsp;Perry dives in head first, bringing her unique brand of charm and quirkiness to every facet of the project. And the other stars of the show are a cast of 20 dogs, who were joined by a variety of trainers to get the body language and movement just right.It hits every note we have come to expect from Perry's videography, with the more surreal moments grounded by themes of isolation and sadness. But of course, everything turns out right at the end! This is an exciting step into the mainstream world for&nbsp;Tanu Muino - a talent to look out for in the future.&nbsp;&nbsp;

In a world obsessed by image and ruled by social networks, Dan Black escapes to a desert &ndash; that happens to be just outside a town of tower blocks &ndash;&nbsp;surrounded by 100 cameras.Performing as if in battle, somewhere between dream and reality, Black&#39;s&nbsp;passion is captured in 360 degrees, in a rather more hard-edged conceptual video than previously by his regular collaborators Corinne Black and Axel d&#39;Harcourt, aka Chic &amp; Artistic.
