Best Gear for Music Videos
Do you have some funky beats and dope lyrics that need to be seen as much as heard? Well then, my friend, you need a music video! Whether you spit hot fire, shred metal, or rely on Auto-Tune and lots of makeup, a music video is for you. Music videos have transformed the music industry. A TV channel completely dedicated to music (until "The Real World" happened) resulted from music videos. Music videos not only allow you a glimpse of your favorite artists, they allow expanded creativity and vision of their songs. The sky is the limit on creativity, but you need the right gear!
The overwhelming majority of creativity comes from the director. That being said, you need one heck of a talented director to just grab a handy-cam and strike gold. So, start with the following: Astera Titan Tubes (like Hansel, so hot right now!). Litepanels Gemini 1x1, the most versatile LED panel on the market. Easyrig Vario 5, handheld made easier, dutch-angles made dutch-ier. Rokinon Primes; because no one does snap zooms anymore, and you're artist is probably ballin' on a budget. Hurricane Haze Machine... welcome to the jungle.
Las Vegas is a great place to film music videos; from the Strip to the dry lake beds, hotel suites to Fremont Street! When you're in need of Las Vegas video production rentals, look no further than F11!
Easyrig Vario 5 - Las Vegas
The Easyrig Vario 5 is an incredible tool for filmmakers of all types. Whether you're working on a feature film or covering NAB on the show floor, this tool will elevate your production. While the whole system only weighs fourteen pounds, it's strong enough to carry camera loads from eleven to thirty-eight pounds, giving you the range and flexibility you need. By providing increased lower back support and vertical tension, our setup is optimized to work well with motorized gimbals, such as the DJI Ronin 2. The Vario 5 will provide expanded camera mobility, as well as increase productivity by taking stress off operators and minimizing down time.
