BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY NOMINEES 2025

Get ready to step behind the lens as we reveal the nominees for BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY, the category that turns vision into visual poetry, where every shot is a work of art.

Behind each stunning shot of a music video is a D.O.P. who brings the director’s vision to life, captivating us with their choice of lens, angles, and camera movements. D.O.Ps turn ideas into art, crafting each frame with precision and creativity.

Join us from June 12th to 14th. Secure your tickets now (linked in bio) and let’s celebrate the art of cinematography together!
