The CADS Music Vision Awards were recently announced in London. Dougal Wilson cements his rapid rise, being named as Best Video Director. Alex & Martin picked up yet another deserved award for their ever-increasing triangular Seven Nation Army, as did Julian Gibbs at Intro for his simple, memorable commercials treatment of Radiohead’s Hail To The Thief. Fantastic too, to see Ne-o gaining credit for their special effects for Late At Night (Futureshock), and Ninja Tune for their impressive music video DVD anthology, Zen TV (Best Music DVD).
