Scheduling a date for your music video production.

Next, you’ll have to set the date that works with your schedule as well as your production team. The Global Filmz team works 7 days a week, so if we have a date that we are not currently scheduled to shoot than that date is available for your production. Once you have your production date set, it is time to have a meeting with your creative team / music video production company to go over concept, theme, lighting, color palette and production logistics.

Choosing your film crew for the video production.

Our video productions start with a 3-person crew (that’s our minimum) and that would be your film crew foundation consisting of: one DP (Director of Photography), one 1^st AC (Assistant Camera Op) and one PA (Production Assistant). Due to the amount of heavy gear, we film with we have found this is the least amount of crew members we can have onset as a production team to accommodate lower budget projects (even for the smallest film productions). Anything less, would dramatically slow down production, in turn cost the client more money hourly and “burn-out” the crew members faster.

The 3-person crew is just a foundation, now you must figure out can you get the job done with the bare minimum or does your music video production require more film crew members. We employ over 30 crew members that are at the highest level of their craft from:

• Music Video Directors
• Assistant Directors
• Directors of Photography
• Production Coordinators
• 1^st & 2^nd Assistant Camera Ops
• Gaffers | Electric
• Art Directors | Set Designers
• Key Grips | Best Boy
• DITs
• Video Technicians | Audio Technicians
• Hair Stylist | MUAs | Wardrobe Stylists
• Production Assistants | Runners
• Dance Choreographers | Fight & Action Choreographers

Now, we just need to figure out what your production needs are and cater to them accordingly. Although our film crew can and will “wear many hats” and have been taught to work various roles/positions onset from grip, electric, lighting and audio. It’s always best to assign a specialist in that specific field to handle the job. If the production budget allows, consider adding a few more key players to the 3-person crew minimum such as a Gaffer that’s assigned to lighting, a Key Grip assigned to riggings for camera and lighting setups and a Director to oversee the overall production. This will not only move the production along faster & smoother (which in-turn saves the client money) but will enhance the overall quality of the finished product.

Do I need a Director for a music video production?

Although, our Director of Photography can play the role as a Director onset for smaller projects it’s always helps to have a Director involved in the process. Our DPs do not develop the treatment plans in the pre-production stages of our projects. Although, they will assist the Director with the shot list, lighting color palettes and composition portion of the treatment plan. If you have a medium to large scale production with various moving parts a Director is key to have involved in the production, to develop a solid treatment plan, lead the artist and production team through the pre-production, onsite production and post production stages of the music video production. For example: You can’t play American football without a Quarterback, the Director is the production’s Quarterback.

Do I need a treatment Plan for a music video?

The short answer to this question is: Yes, its always good to be prepared! At the same time, if you have a smaller production that you are planning on producing with not a lot of moving parts such as just a few performance scenes with some b-roll then it’s not absolutely necessary. Although, either way our film crew will always come prepared to shoot with their own shot-list to make sure there is a guideline to the shots that need to be captured.

What is a video production Treatment Plan?

A treatment is made up of a few elements such as a Storyboard, shot list, synopsis, and a schedule. A treatment plan is your production’s guideline, blueprint, framework to your upcoming production.

The Synopsis

The synopsis allows for everyone to be on the same page as far as the story concept and vision for the project.

Scheduling

Scheduling is one of the most important parts of a treatment plan. The schedule/call sheet provides the call-times, which determines who needs to meet, where they need to meet, and when they need to meet. This is important for the camera dept, G&E, on-camera talent, stylist, make-up, choreographers, dancers, set design, wardrobe, prop-masters, art directors, etc to all have this information prior to the production to get everyone to the right place at the right time!

The Shot list

The shot list is made up of various sequences of compositions (framing), from wide-shots to establish the surroundings of a person/place or thing in a story, to medium shots and ultra-close-up shots. The shot-list also allows the team to establish the mood of the scene from lighting and color palettes. A shot list can be made up of technical text information from framing, camera settings, camera rigs and shot fluidity as well as imagery to give the team a visual reference of the looks/shots we are going for.

Now that the Treatment Plan is complete, you can utilize the plan to finally begin shooting!

The Director will be the most important part of this. They are essentially, the manager of this shoot. They “shoot to edit,” which makes sure that the shots are achieved for editing and oversee the flow of the production. Continuity plays a huge part is this process and its very important that the Director makes sure there are no continuity-errors with the storyboard portion of the production. To prevent this from happening (if there is not a Script Supervisor onset), we normally setup the director with a large wireless video monitoring unit in a area that the director can focus on every composition being shot and request a playback if there is every a shot in question.

Post-Production.

After you’ve filmed all the scenes, you can begin the editing process. This is all the final necessary edits and touches that go into the video before it is ready for distribution. The editing process can be extremely intricate, which is why there are Video Editors whose primary function is to know how to use editing software and align that knowledge with their creative mind-set, while staying true to the initial vision of the production.

Making a music video is a challenging, but yet exciting and when it’s all said and done it’s a very rewarding experience! We will see you onset! Look forward to working with you!

Steps to Creating a Music Video Production in Houston, Texas

At Think Global Media, we believe that a music video is more than just visuals — it’s a full-fledged experience that translates sound into story. Houston, with its rich cultural textures and cinematic backdrops, is the perfect place to bring that vision to life. Whether you’re a rising independent artist or an established name, we’ve got your back with a step-by-step music video production process tailored to your goals, style, and audience.

Here’s how we create unforgettable music videos in Houston, Texas. 🎥🎶

🎵 Step 1: Discovery & Vision Meeting

Every great video starts with a conversation. We begin by learning about your music, your message, and your audience. We ask:

• What story are you trying to tell?

• What vibe or aesthetic are you envisioning?

• Do you already have locations or references in mind?

This initial creative session allows us to align our vision with yours — setting the tone for the entire production.

🧠 Step 2: Concept Development & Treatment

Once we’ve dialed in your vision, we build a custom visual treatment. This includes:

• Thematic breakdown

• Moodboards & sample shots

• Location concepts

• Storyboard outlines

• Wardrobe & color palette ideas

This is where your song starts to evolve into a cinematic experience. We craft the narrative, style, and flow that will define your music video.

📍 Step 3: Location Scouting in Houston

Houston offers incredible versatility — from skyscraper backdrops and art-covered alleyways to natural parks and industrial spaces. We scout and secure locations that:

• Match your story and aesthetic

• Allow for full creative flexibility

• Stay within your budget and timeline

Whether you want rooftop scenes in Downtown Houston, performance shots at the mural-filled streets of EaDo, or high-style setups in a studio — we handle all the logistics.

👥 Step 4: Crew, Casting & Scheduling

Once the blueprint is ready, we assemble the right team:

• Director & DP (Director of Photography)

• Lighting, sound, and camera crew

• Stylists, makeup artists, and set designers

• On-camera talent, dancers, or actors (if needed)

We create a detailed shoot schedule and production plan that minimizes downtime and maximizes creativity — while staying compliant with local regulations and permitting when necessary.

🎥 Step 5: Production Day(s)

Lights, camera, action! 🎬 On shoot day, our team takes care of every technical and creative detail:

• Professional 4K–6K camera systems

• Drone cinematography (where permitted)

• Lighting, blocking, and audio coordination

• Direction for performers and actors

• Real-time playback and adjustments

We aim to make every production smooth, collaborative, and inspiring — so you can focus on delivering your best performance.

🎞️ Step 6: Post-Production Editing & Visual Magic

This is where everything comes to life. Our in-house editors and motion designers get to work:

• Multi-cam editing synced to your music

• Color grading for mood and consistency

• Visual effects and transitions

• Titles, motion graphics, and branding

• Social media cutdowns and vertical video formats

We share rough cuts and revisions to ensure the final product matches your artistic expectations. You’ll walk away with a music video ready for YouTube, Instagram, Vevo, and beyond.

📢 Step 7: Launch & Promotional Support

Want help with the rollout? We offer additional support with:

• Teaser edits & trailers
