Great news, we’re finally ready to reveal the nominees for the BEST ART DIRECTOR category, which rewards those who build the visual universe of a music video: set design, styling, costumes, make-up, and every detail that appears in the frame.
It’s these precise aesthetic choices that make a video instantly recognizable. From set design to props, all the way to colors and materials, every element contributes to giving character and identity to the story.
Come and discover these visual worlds from June 11th to 13th at the festival. Trust us, you don’t want to miss it!
