Music Video Nuts and Bolts

As an experienced music video producer let me tell you that music videos is an amazing way to make your mark and get your foot into 'big boy' work. The difference between the old days and now is that the budgets have all but vanished. Here's the secret and the opportunity: With micro budgets, the key is to have a clever idea that is articulated in a powerful video treatment that is supported with specific and dynamic visual references. Labels and artists are willing to take chances with a new director because they are cheap and are willing to take advantage of you. Trust me, if you get a gig with a major artist (or a medium artist, or low artist) you aren't going to make much dough. The point of landing a music video is that it is an opportunity for you to demonstrate you are a working professional that can deliver art on a budget. This is your opportunity.
