How To Make Cool Music Videos

The Summit EDM Livestream

Learn how to make cool, engaging visuals and music videos using Resolume and these story boarding ideas.

Concept
Define a concept for your visuals. The concept can relate to the face of the song. The face of a song is like the main idea, the unique identifier. Like a feeling, sound and notion. After you have defined a concept you can start creating visuals that support the concept.

Content
There are a ton of awesome websites online where you can find content, visuals and art that support your concept. Support the creators and legally purchase the content with commercial license/ rights. Consider purchasing a membership or subscription to a stock site if you are planning to make a lot of visuals at once.

Always remember your concept. Choose visuals that tell a story and support your concept. After you have enough visuals for a complete story you can move onto editing!

Tools
This is where you edit the clips. There are a ton of tools for video editing. Ableton, Motionly, Resolume, OBS, Final Cut Pro, iMovie, Subler, Motionleap are just to name a few. A lot of programs actually work together in different ways. So explore the possibility’s of how programs can interact with each other before spending money on a program.
