The bio you read

 

Hey, I’m MIG! A multidisciplinary artist and a reasonable climber. I’ve been making films for more than 10 years! A lot of treatments, PPM’s and 'one more for safety's! I’m still very passionate about my craft! I like to give each project its own visual identity - one that reflects and respects the core idea.

Miguel Thomé, also known as MIG, began his career directing music videos for his own band. With a strong visual sensibility and a taste for the absurd, his work blends striking imagery, nuanced performances, and a distinctive sense of humor. He moves fluidly between actor-driven narratives,  character development, and sensorial storytelling. 

 

MIG has directed for brands like HBO MAX, Call of Duty, Tinder, Fanta, Spaten & McDonald’s, with campaigns selected by festivals such as the Clio Awards, One Show, Smarties Awards, and Cannes Lions. His deep connection to music informs the rhythm and precision of his editing. In 2021, he was awarded Best Editor at both the Berlin Commercial and the Fashion Film Festival Milano for his short "The Three Building Blocks", released by NOWNESS and Director’s Library.

 

Most recently, his music video "Próxima Parada", for the band Terno Rei, was named a finalist at Ciclope Latino and will be screening at Berlin Music Video Award. MIG spent three years in London and has directed across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. He has collaborated with production companies such as Partizan, Things by People, The Youth, Madrefoca and Seiva.
