BETWEEN ALL WE SEEK
.
The directors of video clips are the only ones in the entire audiovisual industry that we do not have a union or entity that regulates working conditions and protects us as creators. As a consequence, and over the years, audiovisual producers have invested time and even our own money to make possible a large part of the video clips that fill the platforms and media.
We believe that this normalized and unfair practice on the part of record labels constitutes a lack of respect towards our community of filmmakers, and that it is inevitably undermining the artistic quality of our works.
This is why, a few years ago, We Direct Music Videos was established, a non-hierarchical organization made up of directors and producers of video clips. Among the filmmakers that support this organization are Spike Jonze, Melina Matsoukas, Paul Hunter, Hiro Murai, DANIELS, Emily Kai Bock, Alma Har'el, among others.

We directors of video clips are unique in the entire audiovisual industry that we do not have a union or entity that regulates the working conditions and protects us as breeders. As a consequence, over two years, the audiovisual producers have invested time and money of their own to make viable two video clips that are on many platforms and media.
We certify that this normalized and unfair practice by the recording companies constitutes a lack of respect for our community of filmmakers and that it is inevitably undermining the artistic quality of two jobs.
