The black-and-white video is shot in Coseley, West Midlands, which is the hometown of lead singer Connor Schofield.

It was also recorded at the town's local karate club as a tribute to the drummer's late father who was a karate fan.

Brooklyn - who dropped out of New York’s Parsons School of Design last year - said of his directorial debut: "It sparked an idea in me to make a music video for the guys.

"I met with Connor and the band to ask them if I could. They loved the idea that Louis and I came up with and before we knew it, we were shooting it.

"I had so much fun filming and co-directing this one, I would love to direct more videos in future."

It comes after The Sun revealed Brooklyn wasn't having the easiest time as an intern for top fashion photographer Rankin.

The youngster has struggled with even the simplest of jobs and is having to be treated like a total novice.

A source said: “Everyone knew Brooklyn’s work needed fine tuning but no-one knew his knowledge of the simplest tasks was so off.

“He’s lacking in most areas. But he’s trying to make up for it in enthusiasm.

He has previously shot a scent campaign for Burberry and photographed Game Of Thrones’ Sophie Turner and his model girlfriend Hana Cross.

“Luckily, no one has asked him to make the tea yet but some have been tempted. It’s become a bit of a joke.”

Brooklyn’s 2017 photo book What I See was panned for being “blurry”.

But a second insider said throughout those shoots he needed help with “the lighting and setting up of the shots. It’s basic stuff”.

They added: “Brooklyn’s best at pressing the button on the camera.”
