Jamie Thraves

Jamie Thraves music video career began by signing with Oil Factory when he completed his degree in royal college of art.

Thraves has produced many  low budget music video productions. In fact many of his first few video productions cost him £5000
Thraves first video was for Radiohead "Just". The song was shot in three day and had a budget of £100,000




The cold play music video is one of Jamie's most known music video. The music video was very cheap as it budgeted around £200.000 and again was shot in three day. What made the video so interesting was that the music video was played backward.




Jamie claims that he intends to use the song lyrics to build a story timeline. An example for this is the music video for Katy B "Broken Record". For this music video he uses the song title to dictate the scenes in the video (broken record repeating)

Jamie is still able to creative a touching narrative even though there is little lyrics.
