It’s that time of year again where we look at the nominations 2017 for one of the few grading awards available to us colorists has come around.

The UKMVAs are a craft orientated awards for people who work in the music video industry and held annually here in London.

I’ve never been on the judging panel but I know it’s made up of a mix of colorists, vfx artists, producers and cinematographers.

I also heard there was 120 entries this year which is amazing to see such great competition!

The awards are always judged by people from the industry so it’s a fair look at the current trends and creatives currently pushing the boundaries in music videos.

This year MPC have dominated the nominations with 4 of their colourists being nominated. With nominations from mostly their LA office.
