Dave Ma went to the north of the country to shoot an online video for Foals track ‘Spanish Sahara’ off their new album: Total Life Forever, out in May this year…

Apparently it was pretty cold up there! Dave filmed Yannis dragging a carcass across the harsh, barren landscape. The video’s bleakness really adds to its beauty – painting a picture of endurance and isolation. Breathtaking!

Blake cranks it up even further with his second Hadouken video for 'Mic Check'. And this one contains the ladies as well!! Brilliant work once again.

We’re delighted to announce that the talented young hot shot that is Ben Newman, has joined Between the Eyes for music videos.  Obviously that means he’ll be getting the OB love and representation too.

If you’re not aware of his talents please check out his work on the BTE website HERE

You may know him for his recent videos for Wiley’s ‘Take That’ and Example’s ‘Watch the sun come up REMIX’ but I strongly recommend you check out his short film ‘War School’ which was short listed at Raindance for Best UK Short 09

It’s a powerful and controversial narrative concept that definitely highlights his flare for story telling.  Although to date most of his vids have been for urban/dance artists. I know that Ben is keen to explore other styles too and I think his ideas and execution would work equally well when applied to indie and alternative bands.

He’s been writing us some killer treatments so far, a mix of concept and narrative......so let us know if you think you have something suitable.
 

Stamp tasteful eye has been roaming once more

Dave Higgs and Nicole Heiniger are a new directing duo from East London. They both cut their teeth co-directing a video for Higgs’ band which led to them to working for Fierce Panda’s celebrated signings The Molotovs.

We like to call them Dave & Nicole...catchy isn't it!

FRED&NICK at Pulse Films have been out in India recently covering the Laura Marling/Mumord & Sons tour. While they were out there they shot a couple of great looking music videos in Goa for both artists’ upcoming single releases.

“We got the opportunity to travel to India with Mumford & Sons to film the second installment of our ‘Gentlemen of the Road’ short film trilogy, and also Laura Marling as part of our ongoing feature documentary work with her,” explain the directing duo.

“Starting out in Delhi, where three days were spent recording with Rajasthani musicians. We then moved on to gigs in Pune, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad and finally Calcutta over a period of two weeks. In the middle of all that, two days were set aside in Goa for the filming of each artist’s new video. They are quite different”.

Mumford & Sons 'The Cave' - click HERE

Laura Marling 'Devil's Spoke - click HERE

It was shot by one of the world’s most celebrated cinematographers: Christopher Doyle – who was using a Red camera for quite possibly the first time. The war-dancing is by Damien Jalet & Alexandra Gilbert, who are definitely not in the mood for love. Intense.

Hope Audikana continue to impress with their latest vid for Groove Armada's 'Paper Romance'

Dave Ma's new video for Delphic entitled 'Halcyon' is his second for the band.

Here's what Dave say's about the video...

I found this interesting description of the term 'Halcyon' and used it in part as inspiration for a dance video in an old slate quarry....
 
 "'Halcyon' is a name for a bird in Greek legend that was believed to nest on the sea, which it calmed in order to lay its eggs on a floating nest. Two weeks of calm weather were therefore expected around the winter solstice. This myth leads to the use of halcyon as a term for peace or calmness."
 
 .....it hailed three times on the shoot day which made things tough to say the least. I really have to take my hat off to the band, the entire crew and especially the dancers for enduring the ridiculously harsh conditions in order for us to get the most out of our short winter shoot day.

Mark Locke at Crossroads Films has pulled off this extremely stirring and emotional video for Athlete on rather less than war-movie level resources. Based on Athlete frontman Joel Potts grandfather John, who recently passed away. He was a British Paratrooper in WW2 who fought and was badly wounded at the battle of Arnhem, 'Black Swan Song' is a real tribute and quite a personal project for both Joel and Mark.

All proceeds from 'Black Swan Song' - the singles out on November 9th - go the the Royal British Legion's poppy Appeal, supporting all Armed Forces and their families, including those still making immense sacrifices today.

Watch the video HERE

In their fourth collaboration, Emil Nava has moved out of the studio and onto the streets with his old mate Tinchy Stryder. A much more mature and moddier affair this time around, whilst still retaining that gloss we'd come to expect from the pairing.

check out the video HERE

The combination of Harvey and VV was always gonna be a winning combination in our eyes and for her third fourth video 'Game Over', the two have finally come together. A belting track, brilliant styling and ferocious delivery from VV....this is a video which is sure to take her up a notch or three.

Great job Harvs.

So finally we can bring you Dave Ma at Pulse Films stunning new video for Delphic 'This Momentary'. Dave travelled to Chernobyl with fellow Aussie DP Ross McLennan, truly capturing the reality of life for the people that live there.

Dave explains: 'A lot of people wrongly assume that the Chernobyl area is completely devoid of life or that it must be an atomic wasteland. But this couldn’t be further from the truth

The place is full of life, nature is flourishing and people still live and work around the power plant. There just happens to be a lot of radiation floating round'.

A beautiful piece of work, which further demonstrates why Dave is one of the sort after UK talents out there.

Lee Lennox has teamed up his brother Wayne to form a new directing partnership aptly named The Lennox Brothers.

Lee says, “My brother has aways had an input on set, he’s been on all of my shoots either as a 1st Ad or just for his immense creative energy. It’s always been my aim to work with him for as long as i can remember… It was just a matter of time before we joined up to make the Lennox Brothers. On set it’s like having two brains, but one mind – like 6 foot Siamese twins. We think the same thoughts and speak the same comments… which is not surprising as we both emerged from the same nutsack.”

The first product of this partnership is this vid for Belgian band Ghinzu – a strangely alluring performance piece which sees the band assailed by impish black-painted fembots intent on ruining their world – like comely bikini-wearing gremlins.

The first track from the newly politicised Enter Shikari's second album is a killer single, their first for new home Atlantic Records, with a (literally) blistering desert video shot by Shane Davey and Tom Townend.

Check out the video HERE

With 2 more videos on the way from The Ghost of A Thousand and Madina Lake on the way Shane and the whole Davey Inc team are busy busy busy.

We think Blake has done an amazing job on this debut video 'Kids' by The Chapman Family. Shot on a seriously challenging budget, just goes to show the merits of keeping it simple. Expect big things from this band this year if Zane Lowe and NME are anything to go by.

Nice work Blake.

The result is possibly their most inspired and photographic piece to date, as Thirtytwo continue to demonstrate a real diversity and depth to their work.

Steadily developing into one of the hottest up and coming talents in the business..and we're pleased to av'em!!

Check out the video HERE

Another day, another top notch signing for Pulse Films in the form of the very talented director Dave Ma.

Probably best known for his close working relationship with Foals, his latest effort and first outing under the Pulse banner is surely his best yet. Stunningly shot using the ever popular RED-CAM and crammed with Dave's usual visual eccentricities...it's surely gonna lead to huge things for this amazingly talented director in the future.
