Production of my music video

This section is one of the most important sections from my coursework, because I must know how a music video is produced, to represent the specific genre, as well as the different processes, to help me create the final piece, in order to help me, produce it in professional and effective way.

Production process

The true is that the process of making a video can be more difficult as I have very little experience with using a final cut program, as well as I will have to make a plan of my music video, before I can even start filming such as:

• equipment-will provide me with enough time to acquire any additional equipment I may need before starting production.(e.g. different type of camera, lighting,boom-mic for better and clear sound etc.)

• location-by visiting the shooting location during pre-production, I will be able to determine any issues that may arise during my shoot, to find a solution, in order to save the time, which is the most important factor when I will start filming.

• production planning- great videos require throughout planning. Production planning involves recruiting the crew and talent, and helps me to prepare props, costumes etc. I believe that careful planning will ensure me, that my music video production will run smoothly, and without any problems.

• script- by creating script and storyboard, during pre-production, will ensures me, that I have a solid plan-of-action before starting production. This will help me during production by allowing me to focus on the task at hand.

There are three main stage's of the production process

1. Pre-production
2. Production
3. Post production

All these three main stage's, are equality important, in order to help me create a professional music video.

Pre-production- is the planning stage of shoots, and occurs, before the camera starts rolling. I will achieve this by, creating storyboards,taking photos of different locations, where I would like to do filming, pick the right music for the video. This is the most important part of the whole process of producing my music video.

Production-this is when the I start filming my music video includes the set and the crew as well as the actors, costumes, make-up, as well as will set in more locations as I would like to show the love story between two young people. The time of creating my music video can depends of the amount of factors from locations I have shoot, to length of the video.

Post-production- this is when filming is done, them it must be edited on final cut program and created into the overall music video, where music is then merged with edited video recording, to follows effectively. The most important part of it, is to catch the audiences attention, which makes them to watch it. The production process, is about editing it, where I can use special affects, in order to make it look more professional. The disadvantage is that this part, is very time consuming, and have to make sure the continuity is well done and smooth. 

Conclusion...

This gave me information about how to make a video, step by step, by using these methods, from pre-production, to post-production, in order to produce a similar, and professional looking music video.
