A regular, middle-aged couple end up mixing with with models and fashionistas on the sort of luxury holiday you only see in a Calvin Harris promo, in the latest Ed Sheeran vid.Andy McLeod gently skewers&nbsp;the emphasis on youth, beauty and luxury in music videos - a good foil for the sentiment of Ed's Beautiful People. The sensible couple try their best to enjoy the opulent lifestyle they have been randomly dropped into, slightly bemused by the boisterous, wasteful behaviour of the young people around them. But after exhausting&nbsp;stints on a yacht, a stretched limo and private jet, they decide to pack it in and get back on the omnibus for a bit of peace and quiet.The video features a handful of comped-in,&nbsp;blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameos from Ed Sheeran. The self-effacing singer has always taken a backseat in his own promos, often relying on a stand-in or avatar. More recently, this decision is paying off in a series of increasingly high-concept narrative pieces.

Ed Sheeran ft Khalid 'Beautiful People' by Andy McLeod

Ed-Sheeran-'Beautiful-People-Ft.-Khalid'-by-Andy-Mcleod

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.

Francis Wallis riffs off the culture clash sound of Tiggs Da Author&#39;s Werk It Out, with a party that nods to different&nbsp;eras and movements, from 60s Mod and 70s reggae, to 90s dancehall and the Teenies Twerk.With a rich colour palette, delivered with panache by DoP Marcus Autelli and colourist Joseph Bicknell, Wallis also transforms a classic South London music video location &ndash; the Rivoli Ballroom in Brockley - into something fresh.

Sasha Rainbow&#39;s clip for Placebo is an eye-opening look at life in a part of Ghana that often goes unmentioned.Set in Agbogbloshie, one of the largest e-waste dumps in the world, the clip is a part cautionary gaze at the harrowing wasteland that electronic consumerism produces in areas of abject poverty, but it&#39;s also a celebration of the people who live and work there.Beautifully shot scenes of candid celebration contrast with those of desperate destruction to create a powerful visual reminder that&#39;s hard to ignore.

Sasha Rainbow directs this powerfully cool promo for Wild Beasts.Shot in Bangalore, India,&nbsp;the clip acts as a portrait for a&nbsp;new generation of girls empowering themselves through skateboarding. Girls of all ages, in all manner of clothing, skate effortlessly through the city streets whilst onlookers seem amazed and confused.These awesome females tear up streets and skateparks alike, by day and night, with the night time scenes flooded with gorgeous coloured lights. An all-round fantastic celebration of culture and empowerment.

Wild Beasts 'Alpha Female' by Sasha Rainbow

Wild-Beasts-'Alpha-Female'-by-Sasha-Rainbow

Finn Keenan&rsquo;s second collaboration with Louis Berry results in this super-stylish, VFX-enhanced&nbsp;performance video where an&nbsp;endlessly duplicated&nbsp;Berry develops a smouldering, tango-esque&nbsp;relationship with the girl playing Nicole, the subject of the song. And she keeps multiplying too.The musicality of the piece, the fact that the choreography comes largely with the different versions of Louis and &#39;Nicole&#39; interacting - its defly edited by Keenan himself &ndash; and the sheer chemistry between them, makes this a hugely watchable video. And it shows that Louis Berry has charisma to burn.&nbsp;
