Music Video Of The Month - August

Music Video of the Month: "Eating Heartache" by Cosmo's Midnight, Directed by Jason Tran.


The video unfolds a poignant story centred on the life of a Japanese office worker, delving into themes of love, loss, and the relentless demands of corporate life. Jason Tran’s direction seamlessly blends these elements, creating an experience that is both visually captivating and emotionally profound.


One of the standout features of the video is its dance choreography. This pivotal element comes to the fore when the two main characters meet and engage in a beautifully choreographed dance sequence. This dance serves as a symbolic representation of their relationship, mirroring the dynamics of their connection.


The use of light and shadow in the video complements the choreography perfectly. The video transitions effortlessly between soft, dreamlike exteriors and sharp, angular interiors, creating a striking contrast that echoes the emotional depth of the song.


What sets this video apart is its capacity for multiple interpretations. Jason Tran skillfully contrasts the polished, routine-driven life of the office worker with the chaotic, turbulent emotions of love, allowing viewers to shape their understanding based on personal experiences. The video is rich with subtle details, encouraging repeated viewings to fully appreciate its meaning.
