Concept VideosFrom a simple Lyric Video (using mostly a montage of still shots) to a fully scripted and produced Video Masterpiece, it's never been easier (or cheaper) to turn your master recording into Visual Art.
Below you'll find examples and pricing for the different types of Concept Music Videos we produce. |
ALL VIDEOS COME WITH LIMITLESS EDITING (up to Final Approval) -- WE'RE NOT HAPPY UNTIL YOU'RE HAPPY!
You supply the master recording and any still images you'd like included - or we'll find the images for you! For the above video, the artist supplied only the master audio track - FSV did the rest!
BASIC CONCEPT VIDEOS - Still Images and Video Footage - $600
Another great tune from our friend Jamie. For this one, he simply set up his camera and and played along to the master track. We compiled the remaining still images and video footage.
Don't want to be in the video? No problem! Here's one we did for songwriters Joni Brown and Antoni di Napoli:

NOTE: Most of our videos these days are mixed down to YouTube specs (1920x1080, 16:9 ratio), but we can mix down to whatever size you'd like!
PREMIUM CONCEPT VIDEO - Green Screen Integration - $750

For the latest video from renowned comic/song parodist STEVE GOODIE, we combined images and other video footage with takes of the song shot with Steve lip-syncing/playing in front of a Green Screen. If you don't have a GS, any solid-color backdrop will do - it just can't match any of the colors which will appear in the shots (clothing, instruments, skin tone, hair color).
You don't need a professional-grade camera, either. This video for Carol LaDuke was shot on a smartphone, using a GS along with recording studio footage:

PREMIER CONCEPT VIDEO - With Videographer, Cast, and Script - starting at $1000
Let FSV turn your song into a mini-movie! We'll work with you to turn your vision into a reality - from the initial concept to writing a script (treatment) and shot list to hiring talent and contracting with a local videographer (who will also serve as Location Director). Includes up to $100 talent fees, shot at a single location (including up to three SETS - in the above example we shot in front of a GS, in a bathroom, and on the porch of a single location). Additional locations, location/talent or other fees not included. If the talent fee is less than $100, the balance will be deducted from your costs.
Here's a sample of the TREATMENT and SHOT LIST for THE SECRET!

TURNAROUND TIME for most videos is anywhere from a week (for simple videos) to a month, depending on many factors, including logistics, project complexity, and the number of edits requested. Our latest video (Robot-bot-bot, above) took two weeks exactly, from the time Steve got me his video footage to when he posted the final video on YouTube. Obviously, the scripted, professionally-videographed videos take the longest.
A WORD ABOUT FAIR USE
Yes, we use LOTS of pictures and video clips from online sources, and YES it's perfectly legal!
"Fair use is a doctrine in the law of the United States that permits limited use of copyrighted material without having to first acquire permission from the copyright holder." ALL of the images and video clips used by FSV fall within parameters of Fair Use. Full videos of COVER SONGS are another kettle of fish entirely. We'll do 'em, but you might not be able to share it on YouTube or Facebook. We don't handle any licensing arrangements. Read more about the Fair Use Doctrine, from the U.S. Copyright Office, HERE.
