David Wilson is back, taking Mabel to places she has never gone before, in the&nbsp;unapologetic and hugely inventive promo for Look At My Body Pt II.Accompanied by the sultry Shygirl, Wilson presents Mabel in a succession of witty scenes which challenge the male gaze. He directs the singers through takedowns of the established historical context in art and religion, and shows that it's the female who is the superpower of the human race. It's a visual counterpoint to Mabel's quip throughout the song:&nbsp;sorry, not sorry.And for fans of David Wilson's work it provides a number of treats - not least when the live action vignettes are interrupted by a bravura animation section,&nbsp;where Mabel transforms into a giant Earth mother and merges into the Earth itself. It's very much&nbsp;in the&nbsp;style of Wilson's classic videos&nbsp;for Tame Impala and Royal Blood.&nbsp;This maximalist vision takes&nbsp;Mabel's longstanding inclination to playfulness to the next level. It has something to say, anchored by confident performances by the artists - and Wilson's top-notch direction.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

Taz Tron Delix directs the ethereal promo for Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding's collab on Miracle.&nbsp;The otherworldly video is inspired by the&nbsp;Nineties-style&nbsp;trance elements in the track, exploring&nbsp;a futuristic clash of desert landscapes, anachronistic styling and mysterious movement, revitalising and contemporising the transcendent aesthetics that were born out of the original movement.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]The video cuts between Ellie wearing a jewelry filled tiara and leather outfit with the look of a powerful Queen on an elevated platform surrounded by what appears to be worshippers in sleek beige suits and balaclavas. The track progresses they march in a strong manner, break-out dancing and wave their hands towards Ellie in a worshiping stance.We then witness different groups of people embracing one another mostly in masks, helmets faces covered, buried in sand, twisting through colourful smoke creating a mysterious tone.Blending a whole host of unusual elements into an oneiric experience, it really is a visual feat that demands your full attention, and elevates the track to a whole new artistic plane.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:2]

Georgia Hudson returns to music videos to pull out all the stops for P!nk's old school banger Trustfall, the title track from the US superstar's new album.It's a cinematic epic in keeping with P!nk's huge (and hugely consistent)&nbsp;body of work over the past two-plus decades - where the artist plays indominatable super-guardian to a new generation of kids who need the belief to find their wings. And of course they do, over a series of beautifully realised set-ups across LA cityscapes, in suburbia and on beachside highways - and terrific wirework too.With&nbsp;sumptuous cinematography of Gaul Porat and visceral choreography from Ryan Heffington, it is above all a glorious return to the medium by Georgia Hudson - reminiscent of her last collab with P!nk, for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/08/16/pnk-what-about-us-georgia-hudson/49275" target="_blank">What About Us</a>, five&nbsp;years ago - and also co-produced by the team now known as MrMr - Katie Lambert and Martha McGuirk.Fist-pumping, big screen&nbsp;stuff. Now they just need to bring back proper MTV.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;[imgtoken data:2][imgtoken data:3]&nbsp;&nbsp;

Muse are back with their first release in four years - and immediately at full throttle -&nbsp;with Jared Hogan's sci-fi epic for Won't Stand Down.&nbsp;The video sees an ancient woman masked with vocalist Matt Bellamy's face, drawing power from a faceless army and transcending into an augmented being.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;From the futuristic art direction through to the&nbsp;seamless VFX and dynamic cinematography, the video is a tour de force&nbsp;of creativity which builds to a rip-roaring, intense climax. And the&nbsp;haunting silicone mask the lead character wears jumps right into the uncanny valley, and makes for an uncomfortable viewing experience in the best way.&nbsp;Like every Muse video, there is an important message bubbling under the surface, this time focused on standing up against bullies and oppressors. Filmed in Ukraine - producers MrMr teamed up with Shelter in Kiev for the production of the video - the concept perfectly encapsulates these themes.

Max Siedentopf's new music video for Keinemusik takes the German pun of the 'ear worm'&nbsp;to a whole new level.Director and artist Max Siedentopf is known for his conceptual, whimsical and refreshingly humorous work, and this video delivers the same idiosyncratic energy we have grown to love.&nbsp;Whilst&nbsp;the lyrics are about love, Siedentopf spins the concept in a completely different direction, and what seems to be taken out of context remains in the memory like a good catchy tune.[imgtoken data:1]We open on a bald, middle-aged man ready to feed his pet gecko, before a worm squirms its way into his ear. The man immediately loses his mind, smashing through the wall to the next apartment and flopping over the balcony, falling and bouncing off of a car.&nbsp;As he swivels and gyrates down the street - much like a worm would - passers by also start to lose their minds, as their bodies distort, crush and amalagamate.&nbsp; Shot in Berlin on 16mm, the scenes look weird but cinematic, and build to an absolutely oddball climax.&nbsp;

Directing duo The Rest channel serious Nineties&nbsp;vibes in their sweet and breezy promo for Mahalia's delightful Whenever You're Ready.The video - shot entirely&nbsp;on the Xiaomi Mi 11 Series phone - flips the script on the lyrics, reintrepreting the love interest as a friend who has grown detached from her group. It takes a heart-to-heart chat on the phone to get the fourth member of Team Mahalia to get back in the gang&nbsp;&nbsp;Paying homage to iconic videos from her youth, Mahalia exudes&nbsp;zesty, laidback energy&nbsp;and plenty of confidence to boot, ably supported by her girlfriends -&nbsp;Taitlyn and Kaylee Jaiy, and Demi Rox -&nbsp;whilst the effervescent visual is absorbingly nostalgic throughout.&nbsp;

Released to tie-in with the release of his acclaimed debut feature Get Duked! on Amazon last week, Ninian Doff provides the movie's young quartet of unlikely heroes&nbsp;with a new mission of extreme&nbsp;mischief: an ill-advised break-in at a&nbsp;mansion containing the prized possessions of Run The Jewels and 2 Chainz.&nbsp;The feckless foursome's blundering efforts at a daring heist is overseen at all times by a series of animated portraits, and sculptures, of RTJ's Killer Mike and El-p, and guest star 2 Chainz. They discover the famous RTJ gloves, and some pink jewels giving off some psychotropic properties - and then they go too far.As in Get Duked!, the riotous fun that Doff creates around his characters transitions effortlessly from realistic live action comedy to something way more extreme and cartoonish - shrinking the characters down in a dimension,&nbsp;giving them metallic limbs and sending their faces into supersonic time warps, as they confront giant version of RTJ and 2 Chainz.[imgtoken data:1]It is high concept aesthetic - arguably a big step further from the movie - and it involved a really big production effort including shoots of the artists in New York and Atlanta - with Colin Read providing second unit directing duties - while Doff, aided and abetted by regular DoP Patrick Meller, shot the main action with his Get Duked! cast in the UK.&nbsp;&nbsp;It is a brilliant effort - but to properly enjoy, and get to know and love the characters, go check out the feature first.

New Kode signing David M. Helman directs an explosive performance video for Inhaler's We Have To Move On.&nbsp;In a packed out venue, the Dublin natives perform amongst waves of energetic revellers, hanging&nbsp;on vocalist&nbsp;Elijah Hewson's every word.&nbsp;DoP Joel Honeywell utilises VHS&nbsp;to create a grainy, DIY aesthetic, elevated through experimental camera movements and a frenetic pace.&nbsp;It's a brilliant, boundary-pushing promo with plenty of flair and elements of Helman's trademark style shining through - even more so, in fact, in this&nbsp;Director's Cut .&nbsp;
