Tim Royes

Tim Royes (December 25, 1964August 13, 2007) was a successful music video director and editor, producing videos for singer such as Melanie C´s Number one Youtube Video I Want Candy (also for The Moment You Believe, Carolyna), Emma Bunton (Free Me), the Sugababes (Easy and Red Dress), Rachel Stevens (Sweet Dreams My L.A. Ex) and even Enya (Amarantine). He died on Monday 13 August 2007 following an accident in New York City, where police have reported that he was struck by a vehicle in Manhattan in the early hours of the morning.

Videos

Many of his videos centered on adult content, with some creating a sizable media stir, the central one being Holly Valance's video ""Kiss Kiss", where she appeared in a flesh-coloured body suit to appear naked.

In 2007, Melanie C's music video of the 80's hit, "I Want Candy", featured the singer in a skin-tight cat suit, featuring a sexually suggestive dance routine with half-naked bodybuilders in crowd-controller uniforms. The video instantly grabbed the number one spot on YouTube with 200,000 hits in its first day.

Sugababes dedicated their 2007 music video, "About You Now," directed by Marcus Adams, in Royes' memory, with a black screen saying, "In Memory of Tim Royes - 25.12.1964-13.08-2007 RIP," appearing at the end of the video.

Melanie C filmed her new video for the title track for her album "This Time" in September 2007 as a tribute to Tim.
