Eoin Glaister reunites with Glass Animals with his first video for the band since 2017 - and takes their band's fans down a complex&nbsp;a complex conspiracy rabbit hole courtesy of YouTuber TinFoilPat.The video is for&nbsp;The Other Side of Paradise,&nbsp;originally released on the How To Be A Human Being album and now revived to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the album - which also featured Pork Soda and Agnes, which have Glaister-directed videos. It features TinFoilPat as a superfan of the band, revealing to his Youtube community about the&nbsp;rumour that lead singer&nbsp;Dave Bayley has been replaced by a clone (or clones). And then follows his mission to uncover 'the truth'.[imgtoken data:1]The band were not available to feature in the music video, so Glaister has employed various techniques to build his narrative. Firstly he chose to lean on archive footage from their iconic concert at Red Rocks, and construct a narrative arc that starts with the moment Dave sang “my thunder shook him down” in perfect sync with real-life thunder.&nbsp;Then he sourced further on-stage clips, TikTok cutaways, generative AI, choreography and a mouse-and-cat dynamic, to create a trail of clues for TinFoilPat to uncover.The music video is also sprinkled with subtle Glass Animals fandom trivia and even features real-life moments like TinFoilPat infiltrating the Universal Music London office or calling up the front desk to accuse them of “being in” on the hoax.[imgtoken data:2]<blockquote>It felt like a full circle moment, creating promos for the album again.</blockquote>Glaister says that the fact the band were unavailable for the shoot prompted the clone idea.&nbsp;“I'd been watching TikToks with my sisters and was really taken with all the fanfare and conspiracy theories surrounding Avril Lavigne and Britney Spears and I love how ropey all of that evidence is," he explains. "They were vehicles to kick start thinking for this project. [And] the narrative that was constructed with the archive footage means that I could blend facts and fiction in a silly way, which I’m really into.[imgtoken data:3]“This is the third job I've done for Glass Animals, which means I've earned some trust with them; it’s useful for running with a really, really bizarre idea like this one. It felt like a full circle moment, creating promos for the album again.”

Glass Animals 'The Other Side Of Paradise' by Eoin Glaister

Charlotte Regan’s latest work is a coming of age tale, touchingly told through the relationship between a father and daughter - played by Charlie Creed-Miles and Kasey Bentham.Regan’s love for human stories shines through in her video for Stereophonics' Fly Like An Eagle. In this, the connection between the characters feels raw and real – perfectly accompanying the track’s stripped back instrumentals.Franklin Dow's cinematography is naturalistic and unfussy, pulling all of the focus onto the story and characters, which helps things feel true to real life, and never forced in any way.It's a charming, inspirational piece of work, and will leave you feeling optimistic and hopeful. The song, a testament to overcoming life’s challenges, comes from Stereophonic’s latest album Kind.&nbsp;&nbsp;

They’ve vanquished the evil alien… now what? Eoin Glaister dares to dream of life after victory, in this depressive space epic for Joji.Starships can be a cold and boring place. Now there’s nobody left to save humanity from, Captain Joji has nothing left to do but mope around, play ping-pong with his crew, and reminisce about the glory days. Fortunately for this action-starved crew, Joji’s deputy is starting to have evil delusions of his own.Glaister’s fantastic&nbsp;video is a pitch-perfect subversion of TV sci-fi tropes. It’s all there: the camp costumes,&nbsp;the dodgy prosthetics,&nbsp;the body paint,&nbsp;the streaky lazers,&nbsp;and the very obviously earthbound location. Isaac Bauman’s photography captures the spirit of the media it's riffing on - not just&nbsp;Star Trek&nbsp;and&nbsp;2001: A Space Odyssey, but lower budget cult classics like&nbsp;Silent Running.

The driver for a hardened&nbsp;criminal finds himself losing touch with reality, and drifting off to places he would rather be, in Hugh Rochfort&#39;s video for Icarus.The young man (Jed Quaresma) finds that his car becomes his vehicle to another dimension: a series of distorted visions and memories, as if the Sirens of Icarus&#39;s song are calling him back to his old life.

Eoin Glaister brings us into the wonderful world of Elvis tribute acts - in fact, he brings us to the largest Elvis tribute convention in Europe - in his hugely entertaining video&nbsp;for C Duncan.Luke McQueen plays the unlikely Elvis impersonator who feels massively intimidated when he arrives at the convention where all manner of impressive Elvis tribute acts have congregated. With his&nbsp;hapless attempts to hone his act before his big moment on stage, disaster looms - before divine intervention takes a hand...&nbsp;Glaister seamlessly merges his frontman into the action of the real event, just as the showbiz pizzazz of Elvises of all ages and sizes juxtaposes beautifully with their conference hall surroundings - and final outing on a golf driving range. Great stuff.[imgtoken data:1]

Aella Jordan-Edge directs this dark surreal video for Marmozets latest single Habits. A mannequin couple holds frozen poses in typically romantic, movie trope settings. They often inhabit the same space as the band themselves, until a final twist when the line between mannequin and human becomes blurred.From an idea to put a pair of mannequins in public spaces, Jordan Edge moved on to using real actors instead. From there the concept grew into something that&#39;s much more uncanny and packs a serious punch.

Davis Silis brings Nick Mulvey and his band together with a big bunch of dancers in&nbsp;a&nbsp;joyful jam for Mountains To Move.With choreography by Jonny Vieco, Silis turns his dancers into a happy gang who counterpoint the conventional band set-up of Mulvey and company with their apparent freestyle movement. The bright and breezy atmosphere is aided by the setting, the grounds of an old cigarette factory&nbsp;in High Wycombe.&quot;Crazy place, that&#39;s sort of been taken over by skaters,&quot; says Silis, who adds that although the principle of the dancers&#39; movement were all rehearsed, new details were added in every take to add a layer of unpredictability&nbsp;- which posed a challenge to editor Owen O&#39;Sullivan.&quot;Almost all the choreography was different in each take, so no two shots were ever the same.&nbsp;There were a few simple principles for how the movement needed to work, but once the camera started rolling, one dancer would lead and the others followed (for the sync stuff), which then just unfolded into the free-for-all toward the end. So the fact that Owen could make it link together that fluidity was all down to him!&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Amber Mark takes an emotional journey through India in this beautiful, heartfelt clip by Joe Alexander.Dedicated to Mark&#39;s late mother, the video follows her as she travels through India, much like she did with her mother some years previous. The result is a beautiful, candid celebration of family and culture mixed with some opportunistic performance.Speaking to Fader, the singer said &ldquo;When I wrote &quot;Monsoon,&quot; I always imagined the music video being shot in India. The song had so much to do with my time in India with my mother as well as leaving her in India during the monsoon season to visit my family in NY. It really was a dream come true when I was given the opportunity to shoot in India.&quot;

Liam Papadachi gives us a snapshot of what it&#39;s like to be young, in love and lost in the big city in this clip for Tara Carosielli.Shot in 4:3 aspect ratio across an array of analogue/semi-analogue media we see a young couple in London going through the motions and trying to have a good time. Intercut with a stylish lo-fi performance from Carosielli wherein coloured beams of light slice the frame in half. The clip balances an opportunistic, almost voyeuristic shoot with stylised aesthetic elements to create a curious snapshot of life as a young couple in London.

Sally Sibbet goes heavy into&nbsp;drunken pathos in this music video for&nbsp;Half Japanese Half Muscle&#39;s track&nbsp;Loose Fitting Girls.&nbsp;It sees a crestfallen drunken man, played by Eiji Mihara, alone in a bar, dancing, crying and singing karaoke.Sally explains:&nbsp;&quot;The track is a celebration of life and positivity, so we thought it would be fun to do the opposite and focus on a jaded middle-aged man whose life has slipped him by. And it was a pleasure to work with Eiji Mihara on this, who you may have seen in Rush and Spectre. Much of it was improvised and his ability to cry on demand is something to behold!&quot;
