This is my introduction to the music video arena. Be afraid....Be VERY afraid!!
I started out in music production, I transitioned into internet radio, then television, the Visual Communication and now video?
I shot, directed, and edited the video by my damn self. Oh yeah, ANNND I also produced the song.
I needed to do a video for my Mini Cam & Editing class at Kennedy King College, so I decided to do a video on a song that I made for my friend Eno Redrum. I'm sure he realizes now that the process of doing videos is a very tedious process. If you plotted, shot, and edited your video in one damn day, I can almost guarantee you that it's mediocre to garbage. But then again, what I consider garbage, is what a lot of people consider gold.
I debuted this video for my class on Tuesday December 10th, and most of the class didn't even believe that this was my first time doing it. I can understand why because most music videos that I see look REALLY bad! And I dont mean bad as far as how its shot, but because of the content and lack of creativity. I spent damn near 500 hours editing this video together, and im proud to say that cats that I respect can actually SEE that I spent damn near 500 hours.
Shout out to all of my video production peers who have paved the way in front of me.
I plan on getting great at this process. I'm looking forward to working with other artists, and charging them for my time. LOL!
