Here are the steps to shoot a cinematic music video:
Select Your Song
This one's obvious. Select a song or single you'd like to feature in a music video. This could be the cover song of the album. It could be the one you're most proud of making. Artists usually want to create music videos for their upcoming singles. This is perfectly fine as it truly is the most logical step, since the artist is going to want to promote their new music.
Get a crew together
Working with 2Bridges, we take care of this step. But if you did do it yourself, you'll need a camera operator or two, a director, talent, a sound recordist, lighting, an editor and a sound mixer. Finally, you'll have to scout for locations and deal with permits.
Sounds like a lot of work? Enlist the services of a pro videographer like us to make it all work for you.
Storyboard your video
Always have a plan in hand before shooting a music video. Film time is expensive. Don't waste it on lack of planning. At 2Bridges, we work with you to make sure everything works properly on the day of the shoot.
