SUMMER 2025

SUMMER 2025

“Cadence Music Video Festival stands out as the premier film festival dedicated to showcasing emerging music video talent.”

INFORMATION

The "Cadence Music Video Festival" aims to break the cycle where music video directors often rush through production, editing, and onto the next project without pausing to appreciate the art they've created. This inaugural event seeks to shine a spotlight on talented independent directors who often don't receive recognition from prestigious institutions. By providing a platform for these filmmakers, the festival hopes to celebrate their creativity and unique perspectives in music video production.

Be part of CMV Festival located in Oakland, CA, in Summer 2025, as we shine a spotlight on music video directors from across the country, unveiling extraordinary works that redefine creativity in visual storytelling
