In 2008, Ayoade directed the music videos for two Vampire Weekend singles – "Oxford Comma", filmed in one long take, and "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa". In the same year, he also directed the videos for The Last Shadow Puppets songs "Standing Next to Me" and "My Mistakes Were Made for You", the latter of which was inspired by Federico Fellini's "Toby Dammit". He directed a live Arctic Monkeys DVD entitled "At the Apollo" (2008), which was recorded at the Manchester Apollo on super 16mm film. It was previewed at Vue cinemas across the UK during October 2008 and was released on DVD the following month. He was featured in Paul King's 2009 film, "Bunny and the Bull", playing the role of an extremely boring museum tour guide. That year, he also directed two music videos for the Arctic Monkeys – "Crying Lightning" and "Cornerstone" – and others for Kasabian's "Vlad the Impaler", starring Fielding, and "Heads Will Roll" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
