Don’t Panic: Tim Hope

The music video for “Don’t Panic”, one my favourite ColdPlay song was directed by Tim Hope. The video starts off with an animated diagram of the water cycle, then portrays the band as two-dimensional paper cutouts doing household chores, when suddenly disaster strikes the earth in the forms of floods, volcanoes and electric shocks. Like Coldplay’s earlier music videos, “Don’t Panic” also features the yellow globe on the cover of Parachutes
