Budget

To produce the video we would have to pay for various different things:

• Camcorder: on average - £1700
• Tripod: £150
• Guitar: £65
• Performer: £50 
• Crew (4 people): £500

On average it would cost £2600 to make the music video (this would vary on the make of the equipment).

 

One film idea

I compared my notes with the rest of the group to get a final idea. We agreed to do the narrative video. We chose this so that the audience can relate to our video and enjoy watching it.
