UK Music Video Awards presented
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 29 October 2013
It was the UK Music Video Awards in London last night, with a plethora of gongs dished out to the creators of music video joy.
Commenting on this year’s bash, the award show’s Editorial Director David Knight told CMU: “In a year where some pop videos have courted notoriety, this year’s UK Music Video Awards has highlighted the true range of creativity that can come out of the process of adding visuals to music. It was also wonderful to bestow our Icon Award on Julien Temple, a director who was courting controversy with his work over 30 years ago with the Sex Pistols, and is still adding to the language of music and film today”.
And the winners…
