A man&nbsp;finds himself in an upside-down world, in Alexander Brown's mesmerizing video for Sub Focus and Wilkinson.Employing spectacular drone footage of Canary Wharf in London and a clever use of Steadicam, Brown&nbsp;toys with the viewer's experctations and sense of visual perspective, in a slow-motion rollercoaster where Down is usually Up, and vice versa - and is occasionally vertigo-inducing.Brown's approach - which originated as a lockdown video idea and evolved as film limitations eased - is well suited to this dreamy dance track, with its lyrical references to gravity. Our hero - dancer Mikey Boats - appears to be unbound by such things.&nbsp;

Sub Focus & Wilkinson 'Air I Breathe' by Alexander Brown 

Sub Focus, Wilkinson - Air I Breathe

Faced with the issues of enforced quarantine in making his video for Marcus Mumford's version of You'll Never Walk Alone, Nicolas Jack Davies turned to Zoom - possibly before most of us had heard of it -&nbsp;and&nbsp;pioneered some principles of the current phase of remote directing. Crucially&nbsp;the end result,&nbsp;with Mumford performing with Reuben James from their respective homes, has real emotional impact.Mumford's recording of the classic song - best known for its associations with&nbsp;Liverpool FC - preceded the onset of the Covid-19 crisis, and its purpose was always to support causes close to his heart: The Grenfell Trust and War Child UK. But the fact that Mumford and James had to rig up the camera set-up themselves, as per the directions of Davies and DoP Edgar Dubrovskiy, certainly adds another layer of purpose to the project.It was also made feasible by Davies' longstanding relationship with Mumford, that goes back to the very early days of Mumford &amp; Sons, and resumed last year after a long hiatus with the music video for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2019/12/10/mumford-sons-blind-leading-blind-nicolas-jack-davies/62296" target="_blank">Blind Leading The Blind</a>, from the band's recent album Delta.&nbsp;Dubrovskiy also worked on that video, as did editor Liam Bachler, who does a fine job here with the ebb and flow of the creative process, where the usual separation&nbsp;of 'BTS' and 'video' disappears.
