Marek Vesely: The creative head behind unforgettable music videos!

What is currently happening in the Vienna music video industry? Marek Vesely, an emerging director who commutes between Vienna and Berlin, is in the process of mixing the scene properly. With an impressive portfolio that includes concise music videos and commercials, he made a name for himself in the shortest possible time. When asked about his beginnings, Vesely says that his first great success was the music video "Expresso & Chianti" by Josh. This was shot in a pizzeria in the first district of the city, whereby the production was quicker: Monday filmed, cut Tuesday, and the clip was already online on Friday. The result? A summer hit that brought him in contact with large labels like Warner, Sony and Universal.

A special Highlight of his career was the music video for JJ, this year's ESC winner. This project, the concept of which was inspired by the structure of an opera, included an impressive paper boat and was shot in theaters and under water - and all of this with a relatively small budget of only 20,000 euros. But the effort was worth it: the video reached over five million clicks on YouTube and gave Vesely international attention. "Music videos are more than just advertising," emphasizes the director and emphasizes that an immense effect can be achieved through well -implemented ideas.

creativity meets challenges

Vesely is not only a creative head, but also a critical spirit. He sees the current funding landscape for music videos as inadequate and complains about the high costs of rotating permits, which often limit the possibilities of the artists. "It takes a rethink in the industry," demands Vesely, who wants more realistic funding models. Many audiovisual projects do not receive adequate appreciation, especially when it comes to distributing royalties. "You have to enjoy making music," is his leitmotif.

With his enthusiasm for storytelling, both in a short and long format, Vesely now ventures into the concept phase of his next feature film. This new challenge is in the context of his previous work, which have shaped the visual style of many well -known Austrian and German artists. A solid basis for what may come.

A look into the future

Vesely sees his recent success in the Eurovision Song Contest as a proverbial "entry into the international league". The transformative power of well -produced music videos is its passion. So he remains determined to pursue innovative approaches in order to sustainably increase the value and recognition of the music video industry.
