THE PROMONEWS PODCAST - Talking Music Videos

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.   Useful links: Eoin Glaister http://eoinglaister.com/ https://stinkfilms.com/artist/eoin-glaister/ Let The Machines Do The Work - Let Me Be The One https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2013/08/22/let-machines-do-work-let-me-be-one-eoin-glaister/21178 Catfish & The Bottlemen - Fallout https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/06/26/catfish-and-bottlemen-fallout-eoin-glaister/27209 Aquilo - I Gave It All & Losing You https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2014/11/27/aquilo-i-gave-it-all-losing-you-eoin-glaister/30453 Aquilo - Silhouette https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/01/25/aquilo-silhouette-eoin-glaister/45739 Glass Animals - Pork Soda https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/03/08/glass-animals-pork-soda-eoin-glaister/46650 All We Are - Human https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/04/25/all-we-are-human-eoin-glaister/47506 Kele Okereke - Streets Been Talking’ https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2017/10/05/kele-okereke-streets-been-talkin-eoin-glaister/49905 Beirut - Landslide https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2019/01/15/beirut-landslide-eoin-glaister/56805 Joji - Sanctuary https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2019/06/24/joji-sanctuary-eoin-glaister/59400 Carnage ft Terror Bass - Holy Moly https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2019/08/23/carnage-ft-terror-bass-holy-moly-eoin-glaister/60397 Joji & Jackson Wang ft Swae Lee - Walking https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2019/11/01/joji-jackson-wang-ft-swae-lee-major-lazer-walking-eoin-glaister/61546 Mentis ft Kate Wild - Excuses https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2021/08/09/mentis-ft-kate-wild-excuses-eoin-glaister/72297  LA Priest - It’s You https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2023/03/17/la-priest-its-you-eoin-glaister/8081A
