A night out at a house party plays out in two very different directions, in&nbsp;Sophia &amp; Suzie's absorbing promo for Tom Walker.&nbsp;The video for Freaking Out features Thomas Turgoose as the&nbsp;main character, and follows his experience across the party in split-screen. On the left side, his anxiety and fear is taking over, blocking him from enjoying the night, whereas the right side shows a freer, more confident version of&nbsp;the character in each scene.[imgtoken data:1]It's a thought-provoking concept which&nbsp;brings the&nbsp;themes&nbsp;of the track into focus in a relatable way, anchored by brilliant performances and clever camerawork.In particular, Turgoose is great displaying two different personalities within the same environment. And after his appearance in <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2023/11/22/kills-wasterpiece-noel-paul/84293" target="_blank">The Kills' Wasterpiece</a>, this is his second (and third) performance in a video recently.

Directing duo Sophia &amp; Suzie direct a heartfelt promo for Nick Wilson, featuring actor Jack Parr as a man struck by grief, silently processing a mysterious event as the camera lingers in an intimate way.&nbsp;Focusing on the subtle thunderstorm of emotions that come with grief and loss, the video progresses towards&nbsp;a more hopeful note, as the character makes a phone call he had been avoiding.&nbsp;Beautifully shot with a distinctly human perspective, the video is a fitting match to the track.&nbsp;

Peggy Gou's summer anthem gets an appropriately sun-kissed visual courtesy of Somesuch director Thomas Hardiman, filmed on location in Ibiza.A playful mix of performance, choreography, gorgeous vistas of one of the loveliest places anywhere, in the video for (It Goes Like) Nanana Hardiman allows Peggy to find her groove, at the centre of the glamourous party, but not always the centre of attention.Shot by Nikita Kuzmenko, edited by Thomas Grove Carter and graded by Myles Bevan, it's a very&nbsp;sophisticated and aspirational addition to the classic Ibiza-set video.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

A pack of unruly kids give Soft Play a proper pasting in&nbsp;Thomas Davis' riotous promo for Punk's Dead.The comeback for the duo - known as Slaves until last year - sees&nbsp;the pair as bouncy castle salesman, setting up shop in a nondescript industrial location for the day.Things soon descend into chaos as the customers - a bunch of kids - start to grapple and beat down the pair, leading to a rather whimsical fever dream... starring Robbie Williams in the clouds. Yes, really.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]It's all rather brilliant. Plenty of daft charm and channelled aggression, with fine performances by the band and the kids (and Robbie) elevated by a distinctively gritty and raw aesthetic, for a track that satirises the backward thinking in Brexit Britain. It's a proper banger.And on this evidence, Punk is alive and well...&nbsp;

Sophia &amp; Suzie explore an emotional journey of&nbsp;young love, in their video for Nick Wilson.&nbsp;In the video for For You It Was Him, we see two young girls hanging out in the forest, enjoying each other's company under the late summer sun. As their relationship develops, feelings start to intensify in a complex, unbalanced way, and this creates a rift in their friendship.&nbsp;The liminality of youth takes central focus here, as the pair try to learn who they are in the context of their friendship and society at large, and this imperceptible set of emotions&nbsp;is explored in a nuanced, gentle way.With a beautifully cinematic aesthetic and&nbsp;sense of realism throughout, it's a visual that pulls at the heartstrings and leaves the ending open, to reflect the uncertainty of this time of life.

Following the brilliant promo for <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2023/05/09/mette-mamas-eyes-camille-summers-valli/81447">Mama's Eyes</a>&nbsp;earlier this year, Camille Summers-Valli&nbsp;and METTE reunite for an equally riveting follow-up for Van Gogh - this time demonstrating the dancer-turned-singer's on-screen charisma through a series of jaw-dropping transformations.The visual sees METTE embody a cast of eccentric characters, from a beaten businessman through to a vintage movie star - and the whole spectrum in between. And as with Mama's Eyes, the edit plays a crucial part in the video, with editor Vid Price match-cutting different versions of METTE to gain the maximum visual impact of her changes from one character to another.Featuring a quirky clash of character acting, offbeat styling and&nbsp;completely absorbing performance,&nbsp;it's impossible to tear your eyes away from.&nbsp;

India Rose Harris directs a Y2K-tinged promo for DJ Seinfeld featuring&nbsp;Confidence Man.&nbsp;The video for Now U Do presents a nostalgic amalgam of hypnotic vignettes, full of fade transitions, cheesy dancing and questionable green-screen effects.&nbsp;It's India's&nbsp;first foray into music videos with FRIEND, and it's quite the concept to kick things off with.&nbsp;It will no doubt bring back some memories of early Noughties club videos for many viewers, and the upbeat playful vibes perfectly suit the earworm of a track.&nbsp;

James Blake's surprising switch back to his dance music roots&nbsp;heralds the very welcome return to music videos by Oscar Hudson, fully exploiting&nbsp;Blake's new direction with a brilliantly nihilistic, sexy, beautifully made live action cartoon for Big Hammer.Hudson's video follows the exploits of a stylish, devil-may-care criminal gang, as they crash their car into various buildings during an ongoing crime spree - or simply to have a spot of lunch - mainly from the perspective of the dash-cam, which eventually assumes a life of its own.As with quite a few of the standout videos this year, it comes with a vague aura of nostalgia attached. it would certainly have been a great watch on old school MTV. And definitely to be enjoyed, for full explosive and comic effect,&nbsp;on the biggest screen you can find.As becoming a former Best Director winner at the UKMVAs (twice), it's probably one of the videos of the year so far.[imgtoken data:1]&nbsp;

Maisie Peters laments the toxic cycle of bad relationships,&nbsp;in&nbsp;Avesta Keshtmand's absorbing promo for Run.&nbsp;The video for Run sees the artist sprinting through an endless woodland landscape with several other characters, all trying to outrun their frightful past relationships.&nbsp;The video is simple in concept but executed perfectly, and the themes of the track are perfectly visualised in both the visuals and Peters'&nbsp;intimate performance.[imgtoken data:1]"It was a pleasure to be able to channel Maisie’s message of no more clowning around in love again," says Keshtmand.&nbsp;"I wanted to shoot in the woods and show the immensity of green space rather than distract from it with classic motifs of horror in haze and blue lights."Working with Maisie and Dan [Curwin] at Atlantic always makes me feel good. They’re receptive to challenging traditional approaches and support me in trying to push what a video can be and do for an audience."
