Music Video Tips

1. Make sure that all planning is complete before making thee video.
2. Another tip would be for there to be a mixture of different shot types used, to enable fast cutting.
3. Cutting on  beat is important, otherwise the video will look very odd to watch.
4. When editing cut very frequently otherwise the video can seem boring or dull to the audience.
5. Another tip is for the performer to learn the lyrics to the video otherwise the video will not flow properly.
6. When using a green screen make sure that there are no creases in the screen as this is very hard to edit out.
7. Performers should be in relevant costumes as well as these costumes interchanging between different scenes.
8. Another tip would be for there to be the song playing in the background whilst filming, this make it easier for the performers to get their timing right.
9. Make sure that the video matches the genre of music, for example a dance song should have lots of shots of dancers.
10. Make sure that the performer makes eye contact with the audience during the video.
