She Wolf - A Short Film (Aggressive, dir.)

Filmed on location in Argentina and New Jersey, Aggressive's film She Wolf is a mix between the wistful and the wild. Remote woods, all-terrain automobiles, wolves and metamorphosis all collide in this lyrical fairytale about a paparazzi and an actress who changes shape with the break of dawn. Watch the brand new trailer!  

The End of NSFW?

The UK talk about music videos and sex takes a step toward action with a proposal to amend the 1984 Video Recordings Act, which failed to imagine a future where media isn't consumed via physical formats, or the emergence of full-scale nudity in music videos.

The '84 act stipulated that any movies you buy or rent on DVD, BluRay, VHS, etc, must be rated by the British Board of Film Classification, ranging from Suitable For All to Suitably Only For Adults, with stopovers at ages 12 and 15 (which are essentially the equivalent of PG and PG-13). The proposed change would broaden the net to also cover content that's viewed and/or distributed online.

The other change deal with the actual content itself. Long exempt from the act, however, have been products which are primarily about music, sports, religion and education. That could be changing for music videos that meet any of the below criteria:

Los Coming Soon "La Pista" (Lucas Shannon, dir.)

Los Coming Soon premiere the new music video “La Pista”, the first single of their second album “We are Friends”. The film, written and directed by SHANNON, from Landia production company, display a cocktail of seduction, chase sequences, vinyls and dance. The band show a fresh and personal new sound, with a more dance floor - pop music approach. The film was entirely shot at the classic Alvear Hotel in Buenos Aires. “La Pista is the first single oriented for a fancy and cool dance floor. Its groovy, sensual and subtle”, spoke Patricio Hirsch, the band’s leader.

Britney Spears "Perfume" (Joseph Kahn, dir.)

Director Joseph Kahn constructs a tale of two loves in this unexpected video from Britney Spears. "Perfume" is Britney unguarded — favoring a soaring, yet barbed ballad that's worlds away from her recent electro facades — with a video that does away with the occasional superhero and dominatrix motifs she's used in the past: This is the pop star at her most vulnerable, but still stronger than ever.
