  • We talk to Eoin Glaister about the past ten years of directing music videos and making people laugh. Eoin’s credits include brilliant promos for Joji, Beirut, Glass Animals, Aquilo, Kele Okereke, Mentis, and his new one for La Priest - where a woman falls in love with a fatberg. We find out how he gravitated towards comedy, how he developed a knack for making trilogies - and why he thinks that a dog is a director’s best friend.

Andy also takes us back further to how he began his career, making some of the best loved British videos of the 80s - including classics for George Michael and Pet Shop Boys.

  • Sam Davey has been representing music video directors via independent agents OB Management since the mid-Noughties, playing a crucial role in bringing artists, labels and directors together, and involved in the making of hundreds of videos over that period.
