Book Reviews of Make Your Own Music Video (DV Expert Series)

Book Review: Great choice
Summary: 5 Stars

This book provides an excellent survey of the creative aspects of music videos for different genres, and offers practical techniques on how to make a video. It's also easily to read. It's better than the other book I bought on music videos. My only criticism is that the editing techniques described were for Adobe Premiere. But overall its wonderful, easy to read, and beautifully illustrated.

Summary of Make Your Own Music Video (DV Expert Series)

The advent of affordable digital video cameras and desktop-editing applications, coupled with the fact that everyone knows a struggling musician, has blown the music video genre wide open. Image and audio quality, professional-level special effects, and easy distribution via DVD or the Web mean that almost any ambitious moviemaker, musician, or band manager can now have a crack at creating that breakthrough promo video.


Make Your Own Music Video reveals the entire process with techniques that apply to any hardware/software environment- from tuning up, synching up, and wrapping up to laying down, cutting down, and burning down. Readers get straightforward, practical advice on how to make cool, entertaining, professional-quality music videos. The book tackles everything from choosing and using the right kit, through rehearsing a band and dealing with inflated showbiz egos, to the nitty-gritty of synching edited video and audio tracks and compressing footage for streaming on the Internet.

* Hundreds of color illustrations provide ideas, insipiration, and practical techniques for moviemakers, musicians, audio technicians, designers, and media students.

* Covers the entire process in one volume.
