A brand new video from Brisbane singer-songwriter Jarryd James directed by Scratch, a slow-burning look at an emotional reunion of two middle-aged men in the unusual setting of a boxing ring.
SCRATCH, director: "We started with a woman that has just committed a terrible act, an action that might be the only sane thing she's done in decades - this is where the idea for the video originally came from. "Runaway" has a sort of upbeat feel but theres a dark edge, it seemed to fit perfectly.
Comment from the directors: Perfectly normal day in coastal Ireland.
In the words of All We Are, the video for ‘Honey’ “tells the story of a ghost observing the life of its former lover and the restiveness of the subject matter, juxtaposed with the upbeat nature of the tune, was captured perfectly by director Stephan Agnew. The Lynchian world of the ‘Honey’ video has a macabre and hellish feel that's tense and unsure and gives a feel for the purgatory like existence the ghost is living."
Listen to the man. Especially when that man is Sir Ian Mckellen, who proceeds to (not) ruin a video by (not) upstaging Sir (not) George Ezra in a swinging update of the "You Can Call Me Al" model.
This likely isn't what you think of when you think "dance video" but damned if it isn't a great example of how to make it work with its own off-kilter rhythm. Essentially an exploration piece, we encounter what could be a lost tribe living in a forgotten place, communing with one another through hypnotic movement and physical contact.
Franz Ferdinand have revealed the new video to their new single, Stand On The Horizon , which is released through Domino.
Directed by Karan Kandhari , the director of the award winning film Bye Bye Miss Goodnight and more recently The Vaccines Melody Calling video, the stunningly shot video is based around a live performance in an old-fashioned club. Kandhari said of the video:
