Meeting My Creative Consultant

Chapter Sixteen

Today I had a meeting with the Creative Directer of the video. His name is Luke Gilchrist and he gave me lots of tips for my music video.

Luke Gilchrist - Creative Director

He advised I pick an obscure song which doesn't have an existing music video so people can't compare them.

We should stay away from narrative videos as they are supposed to add up and have a conclusion which creates problems when filming and editing in post-production.

The music video should be between 2.30 + 3.30 minutes long. It should keep the audience entertained for the whole length of the video.

A good website Luke mentioned was Radar Music. 

This is the about section on the website-

Need a great music video? Or want to make more music videos for great artists? Radar can put you in touch with the directors, labels, managers or artists you need.

- We help labels, managers & artists get great videos on affordable budgets.- We help directors progress their careers via our Emerging Director Framework  - see below.- And we never promote requests to make music videos for free.
