During the early stage of his career, Rouvas’s music videos were directed by or based on ideas from his manager.

Between the late 1990s and early 2000s, Sakis Rouvas collaborated extensively with director Yorgos Lanthimos. Lanthimos's work with Rouvas is characterized by its bold exploration of male and female sexuality, frequently using nudity and iconoclasm to challenge conventional depictions of the human body. The music videos had references to various cinematic genres and media archeology. For example, the music video for "Ipirxes Panda" evokes the aesthetic of a 1950s road movie shot on Super 8 film. Similarly, "Den Ehi Sidera I Kardia Sou" integrates the concept of “post-industrial decay,”within a visual narrative that draws heavily on American science fiction tropes.

The music video for "I Kardia mou" has a black-and-white noir narrative, where Lanthimos employs close-up shots to fetishize various parts of Rouvas’s body, playing with the visual language traditionally used to objectify female pop stars. Meanwhile, "Antexa" presents a single, uninterrupted take of four and a half minutes, a technique that both evokes the atmospheric tension of Francis Ford Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula and Neil Jordan’s Interview with the Vampire, and simultaneously offers a meta-narrative where a 16-mm camera films an erotic sequence with Rouvas. The climax of this video features a clapboard revealing the director as "Buck Rogers," a playful nod to American sci-fi.

The video for “Thelis i den theleis” (1998) was particularly celebrated, earning the Best Music Video award at the 1998 Pop Corn Music Awards. The following year, the video for "Den Ehi Sidera I Kardia Sou" also received the Best Music Video award. [1]

In 2009, Sakis Rouvas and Yorgos Lanthimos reunited for another collaboration, working on a music video for the song “Irthes.” Although this video ultimately did not become the official release. Rouvas went on to collaborate with more directors, such as Kostas Kapetanidis, Nikos Soulis, and the White Room, earning him numerous nominations for Best Music Video throughout his career. [2]
