Thea Gajic directs a second promo for singer-songwriter Mychelle, exploring how we deal with the emotional turmoil of a breakup. The concept sees a young woman set up a camera in the corner of her house, just in time to capture her ex-boyfriend collecting the last of his things. From there, we see a montage of different moments - from dinner with friends through to arguments on the phone - all from the fixed vantage point the character set up herself. "I wanted to take the typical break-up story and use it to explore our self-obsession and what it might look like if we set up a camera to record ourselves in our worst moments," Gajic explains. "How self-aware are we? How self-aware do we actually want to be?"This question runs through the video, helping to give context to the narrative moments on-screen, and the eventual reset of the character's life, and her readiness to move forward. With a gentle, realistic aesthetic, it's a new spin on the breakup video, with plenty of engaging visuals throughout.

Will Pope directs a touching film about the break-up of a love affair for singer-songwriter Montrell.Featuring Marek Oravec and Victoria Valcheva - who also starred in the Pope-directed video for Montrell's Aqua - the story flashes back and forth through the affair, from beginning to end to in-between, with poignant results.Pope says he was struck by the conflict in the lyrics of Simpler In The Dark. "From the first line alone, it's clear that this is about a turbulent relationship," he says, adding that the structure of the video derived from looking for new ways to show the highs and lows in a relationship. "When you break up with someone, you end up playing moments back in your mind over the days and weeks afterwards. They just jump out at you seemingly out of nowhere, as your mind tries to make sense of the trauma. So it seemed a non-linear narrative would be the best way to present this story."The resulting film is a bittersweet montage of those critical moments, spanning the moment the couple first meet and the events that lead to their breakup. All brought to life by our wonderful actors Victoria Valcheva and Marek Oravec, and tastefully lensed by Francis Boyter."

Singer-songwriter Lizzy McAlpine collaborates with director Gus Black to dramatise the ending of a high school romance.McAlpine is the girl at the wrong end of a break-up and suffering in a virtual zombie state while her creepy ex-boyfriend thrives, in Black's video for Doomsday - a song about being in a relationship so toxic you know it's doomed.Black creates well-composed, almost dreamlike sequences, heavy in funeral metaphors, and references of Halloween and the Day of the Dead. Eventually Lizzy dons a skeleton mask, and then removes it to reveal her skeleton-painted face.

Malia James teams with Mimi Webb for a vibrantly colourful, warm and fuzzy take on a teenage break-up, set in a funfair - the appropriately-named Dreamland in Margate - for Halfway.Starting after the end of the relationship - where she thinks she sees her former love everywhere - we discover more about the love affair in flashback. Her heartthrob is there for most of it, but the spotlight is always on Mimi, as Malia James creates a gorgeously-crafted pop confection for the singer, employing the funfair setting to spectacular effect. The location played an important part in the authenticity of the story, with Webb being a local and having spent her early years on the Kent coastline.But James, herself born and raised in Texas, adds more than a touch of Americana to Margate. Which is becoming of a director who has worked with Halsey, MØ, Troye Sivan, Tove Lo and Rita Ora, among others. Now she has given Mimi Webb a shot at the big time.

Bryson Tiller tries to turn back the clock in Rohan Blair-Mangat's emotive video for Right My Wrongs. The video was made to coincide with the re-release of Tiller's debut album, and depicts the artist enjoying success and apparent harmony with his partner - played by Jordan Coleman - but there is something else going on here. Intermixing documentary-style footage and stills with polished narrative setups, the blurred boundaries between real life and fantasy bleed into the overall aesthetic, resulting in a piece that slowly reveals its purpose. The use of subtitles to represent the characters' innermost thoughts - as opposed to their spoken words - creates an extra layer of depth to the story, that ultimately reveals itself as a story about the reality, and the downside, of escalating success - the hidden woes of fame.

Will Meyer collaborates once again with Future Islands' lead singer Samuel T. Herring - he directed the UKMVA-winning video for BadBadNotGood's I Don't Know featuring Herring in 2018 - for Moonlight, from the forthcoming new album As Long As You Are. It is a dissection of a relationship stuck in the doldrums, featuring actors Matthew Gray Gubler and Callie Hernandez, who go through a mysterious process to rediscover their chemistry.The couple are stuck in a purgatorial hotel room, disconnected from each other. When Hernandez leaves the room she triggers thoughts of moments from their relationship. Then cracks in the room appear, and then the process repeats. Each time either of them leave the room the memories appear, and get happier, and the cracks in the room get larger. Finally the walls come tumbling down. It is a metaphor with a positive message that feels very much a reaction on the stresses and strains caused to relationships by lockdown life.
