May, with the falling price of digital cameras and the rise of the PC software for video editing software, making your own music video is definitely something to do, that almost every musician in those days. All you need is a (digital video) DV camera, DV tapes, a place, a PC, editing software (ala Adobe Premiere), and good to shoot a band! Here are some details and tips about the most important pieces of equipment needed.
Room 1 - It is better to buy a digital video (DV)Camera, which are best for processing digital images, later. Decent DV camcorders go for anything between $ 400 and $ 1200, and the tapes are about $ 8 a piece. A camera that I have personally used the Canon GL2 MiniDV Camcorder. I had nothing but good experiences with this camera. There are different settings for the novice, and at the same time, it was very finely tuned, because the experts out there. Make sure the camera is in progressive scan mode to shoot. A progressive scan is aparticular method for displaying images, in which lines of each frame in the order planned. This reduces the amount of flicker and absorb increases the resolution of the video. Most cameras with microphones are connected with them, but you probably do not want to turn the sound to be recorded by the microphone on board, as it will be pretty poor quality to use. I suggest you take a mini-disc recorder, run all the equipment in a blender, place, they say mindiscRecorder.
Shooting 2 - you can shoot video wherever you want and hopefully you can use to get this done! When you edit the video, you're telling a story. How many positions would be very good. If you can storyboard of the video before you start shooting or shooting locations. It does what a million times easier, believe me. Another thing is, I suggest you make sure you have adequate lighting. Normal room lighting is not taken by the camera itselfas the eye picks it up. I would suggest you take a book on the basics of video light, if you can. But if this is not a way to remember one thing, more is better.
3 Edit - You are required to remove the camera to the computer. Most DV camcorders with a USB cable with which you get to do just that. You can use the proprietary software used to do with your computer, or you can use editing software that will do the same purchase.Most PCs that have Windows XP with Windows Movie Maker. This is an ideal program for beginners, allows you to drag images from the camera and then edit that footage. But do not have very many editing features. Thus, the editors of the more you might want to throw down some money and buy Adobe Premiere, have a super flexible video editing program with a very steep learning curve. Advanced users of Macs out there might want to check, Final Cut Pro
NowYou have your material edited, you should output to tape or disk. The easiest thing to do is burn it to DVD, most image editing programs include a feature for doing this are. Once your video on DVD, the possibilities are endless! I hope this article helped me understand that music videos are now not only for professionals, everyone can do it yourself!
