Over the half-term, when we're filming the narrative part of our music video, it would also be a good idea to make a "Making of" or "Behind-the-scenes" video which we can place on our website as other artists have done in the past. A few of these videos are below:
By watching these, I have found 9 conventions to have in mind when I'm filming / editing our behind the scenes video.
- Feature the music of the music video
- Showcase how fun it was to make the video
- Usually about as long as a music video
- Edited in chronological order of filming
- All cast and crew acknowledge camera
- Focus on the artist or director
- Cutaways to what was being filmed
- Shows the process but doesn't explain
- Longer takes than a normal music video
