The music video has become one of today's most accessible and most creative outlets for young directors. The advent of affordable digital video cameras and desktop-editing applications - coupled with the fact that everyone knows a struggling musician - has blow the genre wide open. Good image and audio quality, professional-level special effects, and easy distribution via DVD or the Web mean that almost any ambitious moviemaker, musician or budding band manager can now have a crack at creating that breakthrough promo video, the one that may just end up on MTV. It's open season. But does anyone really know how or what to shoot? Make Your Own Music Video not only reveals the answers but also provides enough tips, tricks and secrets to turn any amateur into a pro. Tackling everything from choosing and using the right kit, through rehearsing a band and dealing with inflated showbiz egos, to the nitty-gritty of synching edited video and audio tracks and compressing footage for streaming on the Internet, the book has the complete low-down on getting up to speed.
