Micky Smith directed many music videos, most of them have fallen in the genre of narrative stories. He most commonly directs videos for Ben Howard. Here a few example:

 

As you can see within this music video, it is not much of a narrative it shows more footage of the artist therefore it is classified as a showcase video. This was mainly done through th shots of concerts of his own adn the way he see's like through his opinion. Micky Smith uses effects just as making the footage blury and then into focus this give it a move realistic feel to the footage there for having a greater effect ont he audience.

 

Micky Smith also did Ben Howards music video of "Old Pine" :

 

This is a similar video, how ever its more of a  showcase, its constantly viewing the artist for pormotional purposes. However a few of the shots especially with the establishing shot of the sky within the trees, this shot particularlly has grapped my attention and inspiried my music video.
