A few weeks ago my classmates and I were very fortunate enough to meet an industry professional who had made music videos for the likes of Robbie Williams and many more.This man was Jake Wynne. I found this experience most valuable and I learnt a lot from his visit. Jake went to staffordshire university where he studied tv, radio and film studies. He explained to us many basics of recording such as shooting the whole song in every shot even if you have an intention of using the shot for one particular moment as it makes editing more easy. I also was told that he always has some sort of narrative even if it is ostly performance as he believes it gives the video more of a meaning. Overall the experience helped me a lot and gave me loads of knowledge not to mention (although i had to leave early for my D of E award)we got to shoot our own music video (Robbie Williams- Let me entertain you). This experience was very useful and we learnt how music videos are commissioned.
Commissioning a Music Video
1. Producers sends track out to prospective directors with a breif
2. directors then break tracks into elements and creates a treatment of which they will then pitch to the producers.
3. The label, Band and producers decides who will direct together
