It was a fun weekend for shooting a music video. Photographer Britney Higgs and I spent the day on saturday working with the band Eyes on Skies to film a music video for their new album releasing this next year. It was great to work with such a creative minded band and such willing subjects.
Their band managers were also very willing to help us out when nature got in the way and we had to change a few ideas for filming. The weather was perfect for the setting, though we probably would not have complained had it been just a little bit warmer.
After filming the video and looking through the footage I have become a big fan of music videos. I enjoy the creative aspect of looking at the lyrics and discovering images to present the best portrayal of what is trying to be said. There are so many different things that you can do with music videos.
Another aspect that I really enjoyed was having a group of people come up with ideas and start brainstorming. With our group for this video ideas flowed and we were able to build off of one another's ideas. It was a beautiful thing.
I definitely look forward to filming more videos such as this in the years to come.
