BEST EDITOR NOMINEES 2025

It’s that time of year again! The nominee announcements are finally here!
Let’s kick things off with a category that’s all about the hidden magicians behind every music video. The ones who bring the emotion to life and craft visual masterpieces — the editors! Today, we’re celebrating the unsung heroes who transform raw footage into cinematic works of art, where every cut, transition, and frame is a stroke of genius.

And now, without further ado, let’s meet our BEST EDITOR NOMINEES!!!

Mark your calendars! From June 12th to 14th, we’ll be celebrating these visionary talents live. You won’t want to miss it!
