Kris R directs a rousing performance promo for up and coming Manchester band Westside Cowboy. The video for Drunk Surfer finds the alt-rock outfit in an empty rehearsal space, joined by a rather unobtrusive ghost character.Shot on film, it's a charming promo which feels nostalgic yet intimate, and has a distinctive, grungy aesthetic."Spending the majority of our budget on 16mm and location, we chose Scrum Studios - a space usually used for dance rehearsals," says Kris R. "Its timeworn interiors and natural light gave us a setting with a quiet sense of clarity and order, something that felt both familiar and distant."The ghost character was always part of the plan, though I’ll leave its meaning open to interpretation. While the video centres on the band’s performance, I wanted a figure that could move through the space almost unnoticed. Its presence, paired with the lyrics, adding a subtle layer of feeling beneath the surface."

Noel Paul directs an alluring ghostly fantasy for Let's Eat Grandma. Following up his previous collaboration with the indie-pop duo on Happy New Year, the video for Levitation depicts Jenny Hollingsworth from the band on a train ride, peering out of the window on a journey and seeing her reflection - played by bandmate Rosa Walton, mirroring her every move.As the train speeds on, Rosa develops an increasingly separate identity, and the dreamlike quality of the video begins to transcend the material world. Paul develops the train carriage vignette into an exhilarating scene of the pair flying through the skies together, hand in hand.Noel Paul has done a marvellous job with this strongly conceptual performance piece that dares to cast Jenny and Rosa as heroines in the tradition of classic English literature and film - an aesthetic also championed by artists such as Kate Bush and directors like Sophie Muller. It also carries forward the surrealism of the previous visual for Happy New Year - and encapsulates the haunting quality of the song.

Young HRVY is haunted by the memory of a past love in the video for I Don't Think About You, the solo directing debut by Ivanna Borin. Or is the girl actually a ghost?It's poignant, as HRVY tries to convince himself he's over her in the song. And it all builds to a real lump-in-the-throat moment at the end.
