VFX is the magic that transforms ordinary music videos into unforgettable visual experiences, blending mind-bending landscapes, and surreal transformations, seamlessly integrating the fantastical with reality in ways traditional filmmaking can’t.
At the BMVAs, we look for videos that push the boundaries of what’s possible—videos where the VFX not only complements the music but elevates it, immersing the audience in a world of stunning visuals.
Give it up for the BEST VISUAL EFFECTS nominees! Join us at the festival from June 12th to 14th as we celebrate the transformative power of VFX in music videos.
