dom&nic is the working name of directors Nic Goffey and Dominic Hawley. They have been directing music videos and commercials since 1994. They have won numerous awards for their work, including the Gold Lion at the 1999 Cannes International Advertising Festival for their Nike What Are You Getting Ready For commercials and also won the MTV Best Video Award for The Chemical Brothers' "Believe". After meeting at School in Oxfordshire dom&nic began their directing career with a music video for "Mansize Rooster" by British band Supergrass (whose drummer Danny Goffey is Nic's younger brother). Parlophone's then video commissioner Dilly Gent introduced dom&nic to music video production company Oil Factory, initially for the purposes of producing this one off video. Following the video's success Oil Factory began representing dom&nic for music video work and it was here they met John Madsen their long term producer and third member of the team. They began making videos for a number of bands associated with the Brit Pop movement including The Bluetones, Sleeper and Lush. In July 1995 their video for Supergrass's Alright was released. Filmed in Portmeirion, Wales it was a tongue in cheek romp, mixing the band's British sense of humour with cult 1960s TV show influences such as The Monkees and The Prisoner. The video was parodied by Spitting Image, the satirical television comedy show, which placed Labour Party politicians Tony Blair, John Prescott and Margaret Beckett on Raleigh Chopper bikes with Prescot singing "shut my mouth...zip it tight...while e talks shite". The Alright video caught the attention of film director and producer Steven Spielberg who met with dom&nic and Supergrass to discuss making a pilot for a TV show with the band. Supergrass subsequently decided they wanted to concentrate on songwriting and declined to go ahead with the project. They continued to work with Supergrass making a total of 13 videos over the band's career, receiving a Brit Award nomination in 1998 for Best Music Video for "Late in the Day". More information...
