The Do's and Dont's when making a music video


 When making a music video there are some important Do's and Dont's that must be taken into careful consideration to help gain the best end product of our music video.
 DO'S
  •  A clear sense of genre and artist. 
  • A good & natural performance. 
  • An idea that is simple yet effective.
  • Creative editing.
 
DONT'S

  •  Well - known song (don't be tempted to copy original video).

  •  Over done effects - shouldn't use effects to disguise poor footage. 

  • Aimless driving around - it's boring and it's not creative.

  • Scenes involving alcohol, drugs or fags (even stimulated). 

  • Shots of people just walking around - it will become boring for the audience.

  • Speeding up the footage or putting it in reverse.

  •  Zooms.

  • Footage from elsewhere.

  •  Over the top narrative
