Lukes Talk // About Music Videos

Today in class Luke (the creative director of Hurtwood Media) came to discuss what we should do in our music videos and what type of ideas to think about.

These were his main points that we needed to know about doing our Music Video:

•  3-3.20mins song 
• 1 Day filming
• 5 weeks to edit
• Remix or obscure songs are better
• Filmed mostly in the studio but can be on location
•  Use 3 different sections to show creativity and skill (Narrative, lip-sync and dance element)
• 90-120 shot

Here are some other points he mentioned:

• Try not to use animals
• The more creative the better
• Research through lots of different medias
• Don't use a song with an already famous music video as yours will not stand out and won't be able to attract the attention from fans. 
• Avoid love stories
