MUSIC VIDEO TIPS & TRICKS | FREELANCE VIDEOGRAPHERS Hotney 9 Streams • 4 years ago

Finally! A music video behind the scenes many of you have been waiting on for a while now! In this video i run through a behind the scenes on set with Bonfice shooting his latest single 'Self Made' (Full Music Video Link Bellow). This music video was shot in a one location, controlled environment inside of a house with the exception of a 30 minute meet up with the artist to capture the scenes with a car to add to the video days after the initial shooting happened. In this video i go in-depth of my gimbal movements, handheld movements, simple yet effective lighting techniques, how i vibe with my music video clients on set and how you really don't need many resources to push out some great music video content. Bonfice was the featured artist in one of the top viewed music video tutorials on YouTube (How I Shoot Rap/Hiphop Music Videos - Link Bellow) so it was awesome to finally take the time to recreate another awesome and informative music video breakdown. The final edited video turned out awesome and be sure to check it out! Comment down bellow if you'd be interested in seeing how i edited the video 'Bonfice - Self Made'.

Before you watch; Please read:

This is a very RAW 'Behind The Scenes' of how I go about's shooting a hiphop/rap/trap music video. This isn't a professionally set up shoot with thousands of dollars worth of budget.. This is a super raw, hitting the streets with a gimbal & high quality camera & shooting for a smaller artist. A lot of people think music videos are super tough to shoot but this video truly shows myself, the videographer/producer & the artist working together to make all of our shots work which takes a ton of stress away from shooting a music video.

We started shooting pretty close to sunset so I tried my best to explain what I was doing on set and how I was setting up each shot before we lost sunlight and why I was setting everything up the way I did. Again, this is a very raw shoot and VERY freelance videographer based. As you could tell at the beginning of the video when driving to the shoot I literally scoped out our last spot while looking for a parking spot.

All of this footage was taken off of a Panasonic GH4 shot either in 4k 24p or 1080p HD 60p while mounted on a full size DJI Ronin Gimbal.

Maybe you picked up some music video shooting tips, maybe you didn't. However what counts the most when walking away from this video is how laid back this shoot was and how a positive/confident artist & videographer relation on set is key.

Big thanks to the artist Bonfice & his homies on set for being awesome in front of the camera while I vlogged this shoot. Always a good time shooting with this group!
