Vincent Haycock

Vincent Haycock (born 1 September 1979) is an American director and photographer, known for his versatile work spanning music videos, commercials, and visual art projects. He has directed notable music videos for artists such as Dua Lipa's "Training Season", Leonard Cohen's "The Hills", U2's "Song for Someone", and Florence and the Machine's 49-minute visual album The Odyssey. His commercial work includes campaigns for Adidas, Instagram, and Volvo. In November 2023, Vincent collaborated with Los Angeles musician Maxo to create "Keep on Living," a multimedia installation exhibited in Berlin.

Biography Haycock's early interest in filmmaking was sparked by a gift from his mother, a VHS camcorder, which he used to make surf and skateboard videos as a teenager. This early interest led him to work in graphic design at Thrasher Magazine while he developed his skills in visual effects and editing. For the latter, he received an Emmy Nomination in 2004.
