    If no one else says, man I REALLY appreciate this in-depth behind the scenes because it really teaches small productions another way of approaching accomplishing a vision. We all pretty much shoot solo, but with a team, its easier and feels much more professional. The artist is at ease, the director is at ease, and the crew is at ease. Everyone does their job and goes home happy to know that you all accomplished what you set out to do. Big salute to you and everything you give to us.

  • @AlexMinor

    Im actually amazed that you were able to do something of this magnitude only giving the producer $5000 to work with in LA. You paid his fee, makeup, art, models, car rental and studio rental... Your dude is a wizard and must be crazy connected. Keep him on your speed dial. Y'all did an amazing job for this project and i think you made some very smart decisions regarding what to do with that budget. Thank you for this video. It was. A very valuable lesson in the difference a good producer can make on set.

    This video was mind blowing brother. It's good to hear how you cut your own pay back just to make sure that your client got the best look possible. I know that sometimes your personal profit margin is based off of your own resources and you took what you knew and outsourced what you didn't know.
    I really love your content man. Please make more videos showcasing the business side of the industry. A lot of us want to know how you prospect/qualify clients, how you follow up with them and how you get to where you can work on a $10k video shoot. That's one of my goals for next year and I'd love to catch your perspective.

    Dope video YC! Love the BTS shots and how in depth you went into everything from budget to locations and producers - really great knowledge as always. As I’m looking to work my way up to collaborating with bigger crews and budgets it’s great to see what you’re doing on your projects. Interesting to hear your budgeting priorities and I totally agree - set design and lighting will always be more important than a camera package, to a certain degree of course. You’ve got serious skills and passion and I’m looking forward to watching you continue to move up in the industry in your area!

    This is your best upload this year. Super proud and honored to watch you grow! The grade you put on this is a HIT! Love the warm tones.
    I like getting a nice check, but I hate being a one man band. I’m really big on things being organized, so I’d rather take less money for a less stressful and better project outcome. You did really well with the budget. I took some notes. Paying and feeding a crew is expensive but it has to be done.

    Subbed and liked! I’ve done a few rap videos myself and it isn’t the primary choice because of all the planning and editing that goes into it. Having a producer to relieve the stress is something I never even thought of but need. The budget makes sense when you think about it and this whole video is inspiring. Love finding new dope black creatives on CZcams. Can’t wait to view more of your content.

    • @smileywarrior1870
      @smileywarrior1870 Před 5 lety

      Unknown you should do some research. Look on the web. Why do u need a budget camera? Is it for shooting pictures like portraits or for video recording. You can get an entry level dslr under $500-$1200. Get the best you can afford, is what I would suggest if your on a budget. Also know the reasons to why you want a budget camera, and look for cameras that can give you the features you need. They have DX crop sensors and FX full frame sensors. Some have the ability to take pictures and record video in low light situations. You have to do some research and find the best one that suits your needs.

  • @busyworksbeats
    @busyworksbeats Před 5 lety +4

    I shot many music videos this year off my own budget and I can tell you, for the artist, the $ investment can be insane. Venue is usually the greatest cost along with travel and lodging. Finding the talent in new cities can be a challenge. But the worst part is everyone trying to milk the budget and ask for crazy amounts just because someone seems to have money. My advice for filmmakers trying to secure more business and deals is to set a flat rate (regardless of someone’s status in life) or a system which increases rate by a scale based on the amount of exposure. Because there is nothing worse than changing your fee just because someone seems affluent but you deliver the same product. That’s like a girl making you work extra hard to get a date with her but then goes to another guy and throws herself at him on site. Not ragging on you, you actually did it fairly. These were my lessons in coordinating video as a producer and artist. Im glad you secured that deal. For everyone else reading however, anything over $5k is serious money. So treat it accordingly. It’s so easy to burn a bridge without knowing and wondering why you never got hired back. And most the time the money is coming out of the artists pocket, not a banks pocket, so it intensifies the investment. If you really want to stand out, creative video fx are the new wave. Where are you from?

    yoooooooo man, i was glued to this. First of all THANK YOU. Couple days ago i tried to explain all this to some guys who asked about getting a music video done, now i got something physical to refer people to. Funny thing to is that on my last shoot, i recommended renting those Astera lights to increase the production value but the budget just wasnt there. Video looks dope, cant wait to see it. Keep up the great work

    Hell no I'm not surprised actually you underestimate your value. Because you in a different area. But I have no doubt did you will be one of the highest paid video production companies around because of your talent. Just dont box yourself in doing only music videos. Advertising is where the bag is. Budget is ridiculous. With minimal editing. Do this! Divide your pay by the hours you spent shooting & editing. Then tell us how much you made per hour?

      @@oohstocks after editing I think it's going to be much lower. Full day filming, and probably at least another full day editing. I would guess closer to 50$/hr. But then you have in factor in time lost due to travel, that could have been spent on other work. So it's technically lower, just not measurable.
