MTV Video Music Awards Best Cinematography Der MTV Video Music Award for Best Cinematography gehört zu den technischen K

Der MTV Video Music Award for Best Cinematography gehört zu den technischen Kategorien. Es ist einer der wenigen Awards, die seit 1984 kontinuierlich vergeben wurden. Lediglich 2007 wurde er einmal ausgesetzt. Von 1984 bis 2006 hieß er Best Cinematography in a Video.

Wie bei allen technischen Kategorien wird auch in diesem Fall sowohl der Künstler, der Manager des Künstlers als auch der eigentliche Ausführende, in diesem Fall der Director of Photography des Videos ausgezeichnet.

Den Rekord hält Harris Savides, der den Award dreimal erhielt. Am häufigsten nominiert (neunmal) wurde Daniel Pearl. In der Künstler-Kategorie gewannen Madonna, und Beyoncé je dreimal den Award. Am Häufigsten nominiert war Madonna, nämlich zehnmal.

Ryan Lewis war für seine Kameraarbeit am Video Can’t Hold Us sowohl als Performer als auch als Director of Photography nominiert.
