Music Video 101

In Music Video 101, kids will learn about what goes into making a small-scale music video that focuses equally on song, choreography, and story. Along the way, the students will get to vote on the choices that will make our music video.

Day 1 will be focused on generating ideas and deciding our song (i.e. What sort of images does the song bring to mind that could be shown on B Roll? Which location matches what we’re going for?).

Days 2-4 will be heavy rehearsal days, where we will learn group choreography and work together for small groups to choreograph their own phrases. These days will also be about establishing a story for our video, discussing costuming, learning about what goes into scouting for filming locations, and planning a ‘shot list’ for our filming day.

Day 5 is FILMING DAY! If time allows, we will spend the afternoon getting an introduction to video editing, which can be started during camp, finished after, and emailed to parents.
