I’m at war with heaven…. I’m at war on my own….

When the man who directed one of the most spectacular music videos of the last decade asked us to produce his latest music video here in Wales, we really couldn’t say no. Josh Cole, director of Rudimental’s award winning ‘Not Giving in’ music video, had an epic story of redemption to portray in the new video for the upcoming artist Louis M^ttrs. The video was set in London yet we were able to replicate the harsh reality of the capital’s inner city urban life right here in South Wales.

The video was filmed over two busy days in Neath and the Rhondda area. The cast came from London for their first visit to Wales and had an exceptional time. The most challenging aspect was the climatic fight scene that required an elaborate Octocopter shot in the middle of a shopping high street. Thanks to the co-operation of Neath-Port Talbot council we managed to shoot the scene in the early hours of a Sunday morning. The scene was well worth closing the street down for!

It was a pleasure to produce and work with such a small but talented cast and crew, special thanks to make-up artist Amy Riley. Here’s the video, it’s a raw and highly emotive piece that’s certainly not for the faint hearted.

Chase & Status – Alive

Impressed by the War with Heaven video that we produced, Chase & Status asked director Josh Cole to make their next music video. Josh enlisted Chris from Like an Egg as part of his crew that filmed the epic video for the Chase & Status single ‘Alive’. Chris was focus puller and data wrangler, as they braved the freezing temperatures of Montana to shoot on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation.

The video is yet another compelling piece of work by Josh. A dark and moving tale about the spiritual awakening of a drug addict in a Native American community. The painful narrative collides with the breathtaking beauty of Montana to create a beautiful and moving video.
