“ Mahalia ‘Proud Of Me’, an uplifting moment of recognition for all the people who have got your back.
Featuring Little Simz and directed by the formidable duo Silent Tapes.
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.
Ciaran Lyons, director: "The video grew from the idea of a dancer's movements leaving behind visual echoes (outlines) as she moves around a space. Together with a great dancer, I started playing around with this idea to see where we could take it. We were interested in her movements creating a variety of different types of figures. Sometimes her movements are graceful; sometimes they're awkward. Sometimes they're dreamy and abstract; sometimes they look like backing dancers on Top of the Pops."
