Check out Ellie Goulding’s music video filmed in DTLV — VIDEO

Last month, there was word that Ellie Goulding was in town shooting a new video in downtown Las Vegas. Now we get see it for ourselves.

The video is from "On My Mind," the first single from Goulding's forthcoming album, "Delirium," set for release in the first week of November. The four-minute clip was directed by Emil Nava, who's done a number of videos for a variety of pop starts and dance music maestros including, Ne-Yo, Ed Sheeran, Tove Lo, Alesso and Calvin Harris, among others, prior to directing this one.

The clip opens with a dusk shot of the lights on the Strip with a haze hanging above the foothills on the horizon before fading into footage of Goulding pensively poised in front of a bathroom mirror, looking disinterested as her presumed paramour caresses her shoulder from behind. This quickly cuts to the two in a hotel room with him perturbed and pacing the room before lashing out and screaming in her face as she remains stoic and disengaged.

Clearly this romance has gone rotten. The hotel shots pivot to Goulding in front of a trailer, where she enlists the help of a friend to exact her revenge. From there, the pair head back to the hotel on horseback, making their way down Fremont Street in front of the El Cortez and then through the casino up to a non-descript office, where the ladies find the loathsome lothario counting his cash.
The faithless flame ends up getting duct taped to his chair as Goulding and her shotgun-wielding partner-in-crime relieve him of whatever cash he has hidden away in the safe, after redecorating the place with a baseball bat. The clip ends with the two posted up on the roof of the El Cortez, bookended by a couple of beers and raining down free money on Fremont.

The folks at oogoog, who produced the clip with London Alley Entertainment, had plenty of praise to pass around for being able to pull together such surreal scenes (speaking of surreal: Don't miss the shots of Mr. Ed getting groomed alongside Goulding as she sits under a hair dryer in a her salon). "It takes a world class production team and a film-friendly community like Downtown Las Vegas to accomplish the extraordinary creative choices of director Nava," said oogoog's Chuck Akin in a statement provided to the paper.

"It was wonderful to collaborate with city officials, the Nevada Film Office and Las Vegas based oogoog on this project," added Alexandra Epstein Gudai, executive Vice President of El Cortez Hotel & Casino. "As word of successful production projects such as this spreads, it can only mean good things for the local film community and Las Vegas as a whole."
