musicpool intern — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 10:28:15 +0000

We are happy to present the premiere of freshly produced music videos, as outcomes of an intensive workshop led by the film director Stephanie von Beauvais.

This Music Pool x Shoot It Yourself Community Evening will premiere and discuss the videos, and look behind the scenes of conceptualizing and producing a video for your song. How can you make your video a quality short film in itself, and not just an inevitable visual byproduct to your song? How can you create an interesting video yourself on a small budget? What are basic filmmaking skills that you need to know? And what are the experiences of musicians that have just gone through the process of shooting a DIY video?

The second part of the evening will discuss the relevance of music videos in post MTV times. How important are music videos for the promo of a song these days? How do promoters and musicians use music videos in their album or track campaigns? And is a music video only being perceived as a promotional tool or how do audiences appreciate music videos as an art form?

Steph von Beauvaisis a Berlin based director and producer of music videos, documentaries and commercials with more than 20 years experience. She has collaborated with German musicians and bands like Tocotronic, Beatsteaks, Olli Schulz, Marteria, Casper, Laing, 2Raumwohnung, Kreator and several more. She teaches at HTK Berlin and her own music video workshop series.

Michael Mlinskihas more than 10 years of experience of developing marketing campaigns for musicians, such as Drangsal, Marilyn Manson, Ferris MC, or Denzel Curry, currently with Vertigo/Capital, and formerly with Caroline International.

SHOOT IT YOURSELF - NEW MUSIC-VIDEO-WORKSHOP FOR BERLIN BASED MUSICIANS
26.6.-29.6.2018 + 28.8.-30.8.2018

Music videos have become a very important facet of the music industry and a common tool for artist promotion. But how do they work? And how can you create interesting content on a modest budget? As digital filming becomes a more user-friendly and affordable option, it is essential for up and coming bands and new artists to gain filmmaking skills.

In the last twenty years, Stephanie von Beauvais has created music promos and shot both commercials and documentaries with a wide range of budgets including artists like the Beatsteaks, Materia, Tocotronic, Turbostaat and many more. Now for the third time she offers an intensive Workshop on both the theoretical and practical aspects of shooting your own video.

The workshop takes place in collaboration with BIMM Institute Berlin, Musicpool Berlin and is funded by Musicboard Berlin GmbH. It requires no attendance fee. Catering, travel- or accommodation expenses are not included. Participants are selected by a defined jury only. The jury’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. Application via e-mail only.

You may participate due to a general interest of the topic or because you are responsible for a actual project.
Indeed, every participant is invited to work on his/her own video – either it has been already shot or it is in process of planning. For the shooting of their own video, the workshop even offers a financial aid of 300€ each, to 4 bands within the participants, who will be selected by the jury only.

APPLICATION - via e-mail only, by may 21rst, 2018 to: bewerbung [at] shootityourself-berlin.de
