'Je Suis Jalouse' is the title of Leo Bridle's music video for French artiste Emily Loizeau. Shooting on blue-screen and then fabricating an entire world from photographs and collaged materials, Leo deftly tells the story of our green-eyed chanteuse and her circus-man.

A charming music video for Domino Records' two-piece electronica band 'Psapp'. Shot in and around the director's garden and featuring a bouncing mix of pixillated objects, puppetry and clever compositing a story unfolds between a grown-up girl and her cutlery…

Domino Record's fantastic combo 'Psapp' were searching for a team to put together their 'Hi' video with a certain homemade aesthetic. Beakus and the team at Trunk began pulling apart musical electronica to obtain diodes, sparks and bulbs that would come together to form mutant circuit-board characters who awake in Psapp's studio after dark – [...]

Modern folk doesn't come much heartier than London's 'Adem'. This video was a collaboration between Beakus' Steve Smith, Trunk and designer Lynn Hatzius, who created the amazing artwork for the album and the mechanical birds seen here. Combining ghostly live-action of Adem in his 4-roomed crumbling abode and 2D cut-out animation of the tiny birds [...]

"Forever Lost" is an ode to doomed relationships, which is translated through the video in to a story of missed opportunity, and the stupidity of being overlooked. First onboard was [...]

Americana band 'Grand Drive' wanted a follow-up to the successful video for "Firefly", also by Beakus director Steve Smith and Trunk. This time the concept was based around antique automata – Victorian mechanical machines that perpetuate themselves. The location was a dog track, and our hero is a white hare, who is doomed always to [...]

"Firefly" is a beautiful faery tale based on Rapunzel. Created digitally but with a graphic cut-out puppet technique, a story of winsome romance and determination unfolds, taking us from the city to the countryside and back again. Beakus director Steve Smith worked alongside Trunk to craft, animate and composite this highly acclaimed video.

Director: Steve Smith, [...]

Vessels are, or where, an Americana band featuring love-lorn lyrics and an earthy pop feel. This, their first video, was created by Beakus director Steve Smith and the team at Trunk. A combination of scribbles, diaries, sketches, graphics, photos, and even a spot of super 8 footage, the result is an affable always-changing visual smorgasbord [...]
