Ben Cole directs a transcendent promo for singer songwriter Aidan's We Hug We Sway. We see the artist perform in an abyss-like studio, posed on a rotating platform with a bare-bellied pregnant woman (Georgia Amodu Curtis) who masterfully wields several different martial arts weapons.Artfully composed and leaning into a heavily abstract, illusory aesthetic, the video is a mesmerising watch. Sam E H Hooper's filmic, enigmatic cinematography works in beautiful synchronicity with Cole's quick-cut edit and stylistic direction.

Three bank-robbing brides take on the world, in Chris Kirtley's latest video for The Pale White. The video for That Dress hits numerous marks of an iconic bank heist film - shot in sumptuous widescreen by DoP Curt Taylor in locations around Newcastle-upon-Tyne - with a few notable execeptions: the perpetrators are three brides in face masks, wielding bouquets of flowers instead of guns. That still gets a trio of police's armed response unit on their tales. And with the brides ultimately leading the cops into a church and, yes, up the aisle, the video builds to an unexpected and satisfying crescendo. This highly entertaining visual for That Dress follows Kirtley's previous video for the threepiece from Newcastle, for Glue. Excellent work.

Grant Taylor and Kashman Harris challenge society's stereotypes in this brilliant video for Aaron Taylor. Aptly titled Flowers, the video juxtaposes media fearmongering with softer, more delicate portraits of black men, lamenting the quote in the opening scene. The directors capture a real sense of joy and poignancy in the performance, and art director Elena Muntoni does a top-notch job in decorating the space with hundreds upon hundreds of flowers and petals. Striking, affecting and important work.
