História

In 1986 Jacobs formed Swivel with three other partners as a video production company and creative team. Early music videos by Swivel included work for A Guy Called Gerald, James (band), The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Sundays and 808 State. In 1989 a small article in i-D Magazine helped draw more attention from major record labels and Jacobs moved back to London to set up the Swivel office concentrating on video production. In 1993 Jacobs directed videos for Tears for Fears,Texas and Steps and joined the American company Squeak Pictures. His subsequent career has included a wide variety of musical acts including, Moby, The Corrs, Gary Barlow, Midge Ure, Phil Collins and Cradle of Filth. Jacobs has also worked as an editor of music videos, commercials and television programs most notably on many recent shows featuring Derren Brown.

Filmes

The Corrs: Best of The Corrs - The Videos
Director
The Best of the Corrs has digital stereo versions of 18 of their greatest hits, plus six of these also in surround sound. For such an anthology the bonus features are especially poor, with a limited picture gallery and a DVD discography. The accompanying eight-page booklet does at least provide a useful insight into the making of the videos. It's also pleasing to hear the early and graceful instrumental track "Erin Shore" being used as the backing track for the menus.
A1 - In the Picture
Director
Ben, Mark, Christian and Paul - alone they're ordinary boys, interested in ordinary boyish things, but together they're the poptastic teen sensations a1. This eagerly-anticipated compilation gathers together all their promo videos along with concert clips, behind-the-scenes footage and intimate interviews, including their no.1 debut, a cover version of A-Ha's 'Take On Me'.
