Wretch 32 "Blackout" (James Barber, dir.)

Wretch 32 ft Shakka - 'Blackout' (Official Video) (Out 12.05.13)

James Barber continues his relationship with rapper Wretch 32 in directing this visually stunning video for the brand new track from his latest album. The new video for 'Blackout' is a heavily art directed piece creating a  stylised, textural, mesmeric and dreamy set.  James followed an almost meteorological theme, creating a sun setup (influenced by Olafur Eliasson’s weather project from the Tate Modern)  as well as a  colder more dramatic lightning setup and a rain setup too.

Calvin Harris "...From The Bottle" (Haycock/Rojas, dir.)

Calvin Harris feat. Tinie Tempah - Drinking From the Bottle

Although the premise of "Lucifer moves to Hollywood and fits right in" sounds like a sitcom, directors AG Rojas and Vincent Haycock balance the flashes of humor here — I could see actor Brad Dourif's Louis Cypher as a Borscht Belt champion  — with enough malice and mayhem (and mammaries) to push the boundaries of even Cable TV.
