Pavel Kim, a new and aspiring filmmaker from Russia has won a competition to be the director of the new music video for International producer/DJ Avicii‘s F1 inspired track, ‘Speed’ (burn® & Lotus F1® Team Mix), produced together with burn energy drink.

Budding filmmakers and video directors from over 29 countries submitted their video entries for the track in a partnership with Talenthouse, a creative platform for up and coming artists.

Pavel’s video, titled ‘Midnight Race’, imagines F1 in 2077 and brings to life the adrenaline and pace of Avicii’s track ‘Speed’ (burn® & Lotus F1® Team Mix). As two cars tear around a dark track Pavel’s video shows that none of the thrill of excitement of Formula 1 has been lost with the introduction of new technology.

Offering a global showcase for Pavel Kim’s work, the winning video will be premiered on Avicii’s Vevo page, the burn® YouTube and Facebook channels on November 4, 2013. To support this emerging talent burn is also awarding a $4,000 USD bursary to fund future projects, as well as mentoring from Avicii and his manager Ash Pournouri.
