No other development in the music industry in the last 30 years has had more influence on the world than the music video. The music video has a pivotal role in mainstream culture in the way artists promote themselves and connect with audiences. By comparison, no single cinematic form has developed as quickly as the music video, which is, at its best, a breeding ground for cinematic innovation.

In order to foster innovative development in this important cinematic form, the MCMF and the DFC will honor the local talent who strive to promote this city and its music through the visual cinematic form, the music video.
