    No budget needed. Just a location reserved for the shoot, various pro lights, pro cameras, other misc gear, a car, parking and other misc expenses, plus the talent of course. Assuming as well you own a video editing PC + software and gear to handle video storage, etc. Otherwise no budget needed at all, only a few years worth of experience and skills shooting videos like this.
    Easy as pie. Just do it.

      Right lol, you only need gear that takes years to acquire. In the end, networking wins? You may not end up paying cash for what you need, but you will make a trade for trade on something, like exposure. And how the hell do you get a location like that with no budget lol.

      Lmao it’s filming the video with no budget not having no equipment. I have my own equipment but artist come to me and want a video for 100 bucks. Like what could you get for the video to make it dope with 100 and not get paid for it is basically what they are tryna pull of but with 0 dollars for the artist.

    I think the difference between the old Indy Mogul and the new Indy Mogul is that the old Indy Mogul expected that you probably had a camera and maybe a light or two. New Indy Mogul expects you to have a camera, a gimbal, a few $1200 lights, a four man crew, and a 5000 super cool warehouse available.

    We also shot a music video on a budget for a good friend. Our equipment: 5DM3, a tripod, crane 2, and 2 cheap battery-operated led lights. Basically shot in selected public locations. The biggest expense was probably a hotel room he wanted to splurge and stay in anyway. The car was owned by a friend, and we shot on the spot with me hanging from the back of a pick-up for it 😂😂😂 Uploaded a BTS of it if anybody's curious (video has english sub) 😁

  • @kulmajaba
    @kulmajaba 5 лет назад +4

    Okay, I enjoy the new episodes but there's something I have to point out here: this is not a no-budget shoot because the location, your camera rig and your lighting equipment are pricey. You already have access to all of them but most budget filmmakers don't. I felt the same with the background projection video, where you bought a cheap projector and then tossed a bunch of expensive lighting equipment in a definitely-not-free-studio to get the full effect.
    For me a no-budget shoot (pretty much every production I do) means no good locations and lighting everything with four CFL softboxes. I don't even have enough sandbags or extension cords for all four lights.

    Hi, I'm shooting my first music video for an artist and this video has been so informative, THANKYOU!!!
    One question. What frame rates are best for music videos? I'm thinking 24fps for the artist singing and 60fps for selected clips for slow mo?

      Maz Nieviarovski yes you got it right, then edit and render your project in 24fps

    I guess this gives "no budget" a whole new meaning: just a few thousand on equipment, a small crew of assistants, location rental...unless they broke-in, and travel expenses.

    People love to over light the shit out of anything. TV is the worst. Nothing can be dim. Even a "pitch black" scene lit with torches is lit with a dozen light sources from every angle and a blue filter. Because rooms turn bright blue when the lights go off. For me "fantastic lighting" replicates how something would look in the environment shown to the audience. When I know people only have one dim bulb over their heads in an enclosed space. It totally throws me off seeing light sources from three other locations removing shadows from their face.
    When I see someone singing in a big budget music video in an old church for example. Dramatic shots of pale light creeping through stained glass then person in said church, lit completely differently to anything else. I just think it looks fake. It looks photoshopped, badly. The best images come from badass locations being dressed to appear on film how they do in life, or exaggerate an aspect of it. Not creating a photo studio on every single set in the world to remove all of natures lighting "imperfections".

    So, how much was the rental at the studio? You said several times "...no budget..." but I'm guessing the studio cost something. Thanks Tim :)

      Fatcalf Media that warehouse in Hoboken doesn’t really have many people in it using it. I use to do play rehearsals there with my crew and very few times did we actually have to book... could just show up.

    the gear plus transport and this location was not free this shoot cost $3000-$4000 min editing alone is another $1000 min $5000 for a music video is cheap but above many artist budget

      I dont agree
      1.) Dont try to be a "one man army" ! ....ask your network if you ask 4-6 people who are in the interest of making film/video there should be 3 lights and a couple of stands.
      2.) I was involved in a shoot wherewe got a full equippet van from a rental house for free, because it wasa charity-projekt... the only thing is you have to give them a safety-fee of 5k euro, which you get back after reciving the stuff back.
      3.) Dont know exactly but 3 ligths and a couple of stands should not be morethan 600euro a day in rental....but the safety-fee
      It only depends on your ability to work with stuff you get, and not only the stuffyou wishyou had to hand...just my opinion.

      ​@@felixxmu1967 i was speaking about this video shoot .
      1 example the lights these are not 110v
      you cant just run around gonzo with 5000w+ of lights
      i am sure if you were a film student you could do it for less
      i just priced what i saw
      even with your safety-fee you still need to have 5K to start ..
      and if your working with untrained "friends" for free
      it might cost you more than that.
      you need director / grip/ light guy / sound guy (4 people min)
      who is watching the gear??? who is watching the truck ..??
      are you on the first floor ?? how many locations (teardown/setup) ??
      that is min $2000 just to pay 4 people you can trust
      also don't forget your permit $600-$1700
      cause if the cops get you they can seize your gear and fine you way more than that

    How to film a video on a Budget?
    Proceeds to use a 700 $ gimbal and light the scene with an also very not low priced lamp.
    By the way , besides the camera , this are the only two things you need to buy to make a professional looking film...
    So yeah, this is not a low budget, because what you used to make that video is literally all you need to make a good looking movie xD
