The music video, directed and animated by Bill Mather,

produced by Simon Fields through Limelight Films

and cinematographed by Francis Kenny,

uses rotoscoping and shows the band performing,

overlaid with images of the First World War.

In contrast with the at-that-time very modern clip in "Money for Nothing",

the video clip has a very classic appearance in noisy black and white images.

"Brothers in Arms" won the Grammy Award for Best Music Video

at the 29th Annual Grammy Awards on 24 February 1987.
