uk music video awards 18

ten years on from the very first uk music video awards, it’s been exciting to see entries coming in from all around the globe in greater numbers than ever, from regular ukmva participants, former nominees and first-time entrants. this year more than 1800 videos were submitted for judging. 400 jury members were invited to vote in round 1 and the top-voted entries were reviewed by 100 industry professionals in a series of live judging panels. the entries for the individual awards for director, new director, producer, commissioner, artist and production company, based on a body of work from the past year, were voted on by jury members. it is thanks to the participation of the jury members that the uk music video awards is a respected and valued competition. our special thanks go to our friends at the mill, bfi stephen street, and black dog films for hosting judging sessions, and to martin roker, carrie sutton, toby abbott, dan massie, barnaby laws, dan kreeger and thom trigger who chaired panels. the uk music video awards 2018 will take place at london’s legendary roundhouse on thursday 25 october. we will be presenting more than 30 awards for achievement in music video and music film, and we will be proud once again to bring together british and international music filmmaking talent for one night under one roof to celebrate the most creative, innovative and successful work of the past 12 months. we look forward to seeing you there. the ukmva team ukmva.com
