Music Video Production

Course Number
CMLM-581
Description

At their best, music videos are mini movies that visually capture the emotional context of a song and can even expand on the story of the song's lyrics. In this course you'll acquire the skills to produce high-quality music videos that tell the story of a song in a visually compelling way.

Through the use of standard movie-production teams, schedules, lighting, camera, and post production techniques, students will gain real-world experience on video productions before applying these techniques in their own productions. The class experience includes analysis of music video examples, hands-on practice with camera and lighting equipment, technical exercises with cameras and software, and creative experiments with innovative filming and post production techniques.
