===Music promo videos=== Barney Bubbles directed several videos, including [[the Specials]]' "[[Ghost Town (The Specials song)|Ghost Town]]", [[Squeeze (band)|Squeeze]]'s "[[Is That Love]]" and "[[Tempted (Squeeze song)|Tempted]]", [[Elvis Costello]]'s "[[Clubland (song)|Clubland]]" and "[[New Lace Sleeves]]", and [[Fun Boy Three]]'s "[[The Lunatics (Have Taken Over the Asylum)]]". Two promos for the punk act [[Johnny Moped]], "Incendiary Device" and "Darling Let's Have Another Baby", were never commercially released to broadcasters. "A good video can sell a record which might not do so well," Bubbles told ''[[Smash Hits]]'' magazine in 1982.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/51106326@N00/6442288427/in/set-72157628248724685/ |title=Smash Hits, January 21, 1982 - p. 32 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! |date=2 December 2011 |publisher=Secure.flickr.com |access-date=28 June 2014 |archive-date=26 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200726153840/https://www.flickr.com/photos/51106326@N00/6442288427/in/set-72157628248724685/ |url-status=live }}</ref> "The record companies know that. I think Chrysalis would agree that The Specials' 'Ghost Town' video helped sales a good deal. This year I intend to make videos which are really inexpensive but really inventive. It can be done, you know."
