MUSIC VIDEOS

A Music Video, like a drama, should be planned, even scripted, before you shoot. Flying by the seat of your pants isn't going to get you where you want to go. Do a little homework. Study music videos and performances featuring music of the same genre and note techniques that impress you. Try to figure out how and why the directors took the shots and made the cuts that they did. You don't have to duplicate what you see, but it won't hurt to borrow some ideas from the pros. Every song and dance that has appeared on film or video has had someone making decisions about what goes where. And, with a little thought, you can usually figure out why that particular image was shot for that bar of music. At The Graphic Studio we offer various packages for your music video needs, specializing in low budget Digital Video filming to service our local areas with prices ranging from the $ 999 to $ 4,500.
You get us the song a week in advance of the scheduled band shoot, and we then write, produce and direct a story based around this music video. All you have to do is give us the track and set the time for your band to perform the number.  We then edit the video and deliver it on broadcast quality MiniDV tape for your distribution.
