Submitter who wins the most categories
The more categories submit to, the better your chances.
Music videos are where music becomes cinema — and the people who make them rarely get the stage they deserve. HMVA changes that. From the year's defining video to the unsung heroes who make the magic happen, we honor every craft, every genre, and every bold idea that moved the culture forward.
60+ accolades across four tiers. OF THE YEAR honors crown the artists and companies who set the standard. GRAND HONORS reward the craft behind the lens, the cut, and the color. CINEMA STYLE celebrates the storytelling swing — comedy, action, sci-fi, virality, and the scrappy phone-shot underdog. MUSIC GENRE spotlights the best in pop, rap, R&B, country, rock, Latin, and beyond.
If you had a hand in it, there's a category for it. Enter, get nominated, get seen.
