What you’ll learn
Planning is important but allows for spontaneity on set.
Shoot twice the speed to have a slo-mo shot with mouth synced with the audio.
Let your creativity flow on the day of a shoot.
During location scouting watch out for lighting.
Do not follow others – create your own rules.
The visuals only support the audio in the music video.
Masterclass Chapters
In this masterclass, Eypee Kaamiño teaches us all about music video production. He will go through the different types, how to choose a location and which gears he uses.
Music video types
When it comes to music types, there is a lot of them. Focus on the visual aspects, or the performance or a storyline.
Pre-production
In the pre-production process, you write the script and the storyboards. You go through everything you need to prepare, picking the actors and the location, etc.
Location scouting & lighting
When picking a location, sometimes going through an agent who knows the region is a time saver. However, they cost a lot of money. Asking a friend or someone from your circle is always better.
Camera gear & settings
Eypee then lists us which equipment he uses. He says he doesn't want to give us rules, as shooting a music video should be artistic and personal.
Production
During the production, a lot is going on. The first advice he gives is to be fit, as carrying the equipment will be tiring.
Post-production
For the post-production process, Eypee reminds us that it doesn't matter which software you use, as long as you are happy with the product.
Tips & tricks
Before wrapping up, Eypee gives us some tips and tricks he learned over the years. The first one is: that if you want to create a hectic mood, use tight lenses.
