Award-winning filmmaker, Uzair Merchant (“Uzi”), is pushing creative boundaries with Stardust, Canada’s first securitized NFT music video. The music video was shot on an iPhone 11, in Dubai and Vancouver.

Uzi is one of India’s first production designers in Hollywood, having worked on a variety of projects such as films ‘Deadpool 2’ and ‘The Misfits’, TV series ‘Sesame Street’, and commercials with Cadillac, McDonald’s and 7Up.

He is now innovating the way creative artists produce art creatively with his new single, ‘Stardust’.

Even legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg has been inspired creatively to try his hand at making a three-minute music video shot on a cellphone when the ‘Jurassic Park Director’ made his music video debut with ‘Cannibal’, the new single from Marcus Mumford, lead singer of Mumford and Sons.

‘Stardust’ is an award-winning music video

The music video recently won 4 awards at the Los Angeles Cinematography Awards (LACA) for Best Music Video Cinematography, Best Production Design, Best Song and Best Music Video.
