Music video budgeting for independent artists
Posted by Jakub Nowak (drone_operator) in visuals-video
I direct music videos for independent artists, many of whom I found through beatcorelab. Budget breakdown for a quality indie video:
- Location: $0-500 (use free locations creatively)
- Camera: $200-500/day rental
- Lighting: $100-300
- Editing: $300-800
- Color grading: $150-300
Total: $750-2,400 for something professional.
beatcorelab Connection is perfect for finding directors, camera ops, and editors. The music community here understands indie budgets.
What's the most creative low-budget video you've seen?
