Full Screen collects all of the remarkable videos we've seen in the last 24 hours. Fiver, "Lonesome In This Grave"

The new video from Simone Schmidt's criminally underrated Fiver projectis the gorgeous fruit of a pure collaboration between three otherwise isolated elements: the song's lyrics, the video director and the subject. Toronto artistJeff Bierkexpands his idea of collaborative photography to create an achingly intimate portrait of video star Carl Lance Bonnici, letting the song's themes of slow mortality, decayand longingplay across his face as the words scrawl beneath it, before he commands a display of light against a wall and a brief, fleeting image of the singer.

Bierk explains in an email to Chart Attack:

"The video was made with my friend Carl Lance Bonicci on a break from my day at work. I sell cameras in downtown Toronto, in the neighborhood where Carl hangs out. So I've collaborated with him a few times on other photographs, and we talk daily about all sorts of things including where his photographs are showing and who is looking at them. He says seeing images of himself helps him to reflect on his life and his current situation. He thinks the images are important because they offer a truth about his life in this neighborhood, and most of all he loves the attention. It makes him feel important, he says.

For the video I felt a connection between the lyrics of the song (which I feel could stand alone outside of the song) the imagery they created in my head, and with Carl's face. They both spoke to me about mortality, frailty, longing, isolation and struggle. And of beauty, obviously, since both Carl and the song are so beautiful. For me, art is a real outlet for the weight of these feelings- a necessity to cope with them. The video is a moving portrait of Carl, he shakes, and conjures light to dance. The wall shakes and a faint image of Simone appears. It's about this kind of spiritual connection between the three of us: the shared weight of our own struggles and how we carry it. How the body often feels like a grave, like the song says."

As the Dirty Beaches project drifts slowly towards its completion (and transformation), everything Alex Zhang Hungtai releases carries an air of finality. So it makes sense that Loic Zimmermann's new 15-minute short film for the ambientStatelesstrack "Time Washes Everything Away" is basically Dirty Beaches at its Dirty Beachiest:Hungtai looks upon the strange beauty of some of the moredecrepit, isolated parts of Lisbon, watches panoramic vistas pass bywindows, blows a lonely saxophone. It's an absolute visual representation of the project's geographically-unfixed longing, the one Dirty Beaches has been leading towards.

Father John Misty abandoned his original kitten wedding video idea and its accompanying Huffington Post headline "EX-FLEET FOXES DRUMMER WEDS CATS" because this new song means too much for him. Not that the soft focus kaleidoscope iPadvideo, co-directed by Josh Tillman and his wife Emma Tillman on their wedding anniversary, is any schlockier than the song's lyrical deconstruction of the tacitchasteness of the wedding ritual (an expansion of the brutal "passionate obligation to a roommate" line of "Bored in The USA"). Butthe guy expresses sincerity through carefully deployed irony and song references. So its sweet in its way.

Tillman's press release is hiliarious, so you're getting it in full:

"A few months ago, I had an idea for a music video. I was going to rent a wedding chapel, get a dozen kittens and stage a kitten wedding, over which I would preside and intercut with performance footage of me lip-syncing the song which youre hearing today, Chateau Lobby #4 (in C for Two Virgins).

"Sounds great, right? It may have even gone viral because kittens. If a video goes viral, that means youre reaching a wider audience, and you might even get on a chart. If you get on a chart that means youre streaming more records, and the more records youre streaming the more money you supposedly have for hiring kitten wranglers.
