About Our Los Angeles Music Video Production:

Tiger House Films was approached by the manager of the Raw Fabrics to create a music video production for the indie band here in Los Angeles. Their concept was to create a performance video inside a raw warehouse, with the band performing in front of a large banner with their track’s name printed on it. The lighting and camera movements were set up to convey a chaotic, high energy feel to the coverage to match the tempo and vocals of the song.

This music video production was directed by Jack Mascolo, the lead singer of the Raw Fabrics. The collaboration relied heavily on conceptual meetings and the interaction between Jack and our Director of Photography, Martin Moody. Production design for the music video was created to the specifications of the band and guided by their creative direction. The shoot took place over one day in downtown Los Angeles inside a raw warehouse space.

Tiger House Films produced the video from pre-production through post. The final picture edit was created by Jack Mascolo. The Raw Fabrics are a Los Angeles based trio. Since first forming in 2013, they have one critically acclaimed EP to their name, 2014’s Gold Handcuffs, and they’ve shared the stage with the likes of Alt-J and Weezer. “Dead Instruments” is from their follow up EP, “Plastic Joy”. The band can be seen live, headlining the Roxy on August 18th, 2015.

About Our Los Angeles Music Video Production:

Tiger House Films has created a music video production for new electronic artist Skarfy. His debut single “Lost In My Memories” is a mix of ethereal vocals by the artist Gio and laid back electronic beats. Shot entirely on location, our Los Angeles music video production company kept a minimal crew allowing for maximum mobility during the music video’s multiple production days.

Our Los Angeles production company has worked with independent artists in the past and this was a particularly great experience due to the people involved and great support for this up and coming artist and musician. Our music video production team shot over a period of two days with great talent. This music video features actress, model and singer Hailey Johnson and actor Zach Dulin as characters separated by time and space yet linked together by their memories of each other.

Creative music video projects allow our production team to showcase our ability to create beautiful cinematography along with our discipline to work within strict budgets and timelines. This particular music video had several restrictions in terms of time and the scope of the project. Our LA production company utilized our experience and called in favors in to give the client the best possible product to showcase as Skarfy’s debut single launches.

We at Tiger House Films love to work with emerging artists as much as established musicians and our team gets great satisfaction out of seeing our collaborators thrive in their respective fields. This is the reason our Los Angeles music video production company gives each production everything that we have, and look forward to creating great videos that can be showcased for years to come.

About Our International Music Video Production:

In May 2014 Los Angeles production company Tiger House Films created a music video production with Angolan singer Yola Araujo who is considered one of the big names in Angolan music. This music video entitled “My Baby” was shot, directed and edited by DJ Marcell. Our production team supported the artist in multiple locations throughout the downtown and Santa Monica areas on a very tight timeline as the artist and director were only in town for 5 days. Tiger House Films was able to procure permits, insurance, locations, equipment, hotel and transportation as well as a production crew within a very short period of time.

Music video productions are always interesting due to their artistic nature. Our music video production team gets excited at the prospect of creating and producing something new each time as well as the unique mixing of artistic genres such as music and film. Yola and her team were very interested in certain landmark locations throughout the Los Angeles area. Our extensive production experience allowed us to pinpoint these locations that fit the aesthetic needs of the artist and director’s vision.

This song is written and performed by Yola in her native tongue, Portuguese. It is also the official language of her home country of Angola. We were instantly attracted to her song “My Baby” and her uncanny ability as an artist to bring that universal appeal to her music. If you would like to hear more of her songs please visit the link to her youtube channel below:

Our music video production team had a great experience shooting with Yola and her team, we welcome them back to the United States anytime to come shoot with us again. A special thanks to DJ Marcell for the creative vision he brought to the project and Martin Moody as well as Derek Rittenhouse for their cinematography support.

About Our International Music Video Production:

In 2014 Los Angeles production company Tiger House Films created two music video productions with Angolan singer Yola Araujo. This video entitled “Nunca Mais” was our second collaboration with the artist who sings in her native tongue, Portuguese, which is the official language of her home country, Angola. This music video was once again shot, directed and edited by DJ Marcell, a talented music video and commercial director from Africa. DJ Marcell tours the world to direct videos in unique locations for artists based mostly from different countries in Africa.

For this Los Angeles production, our music video production team was able to procure talent, equipment, crew, locations and permits to shoot in downtown Los Angeles, SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills, as well as several locations in West Hollywood. Our Los Angeles commercial, film and video productions are all created within a precise timeline and have the highest aesthetic quality. For this music video we were on a tight schedule therefore our equipment had to be lightweight and portable. We were able to shoot 4k video on the Panasonic GH4 and carried compact sliders as well as a portable dolly for stabilized camera movement.

Having experience in production specifically in the Los Angeles area allows our LA production company to create professional projects that run smoothly from beginning to end. Working with Yola and her team was another great experience supporting an international client with our knowledge and expertise in the Los Angeles entertainment industry. If you would like to hear more of Yola Araujo’s songs please visit the link to her youtube channel below:

Our Los Angeles production company would like to extend a special thanks to DJ Marcell for the creative vision he brought to these projects and Martin Moody as well as Derek Rittenhouse for their cinematography support to create a clean and professional production.

The 2013 Tiger House Films Los Angeles Film and Television Production Company Reel contains a compilation of projects produced by our company. These projects include Narrative Films, Television Productions, Music Videos, Commercials and Live Performances and Web Videos. Every one of these projects was unique and presented different challenges but in the end our results were amazing and the process was incredibly enjoyable for everyone on the film crew.

Whether we are in a studio shooting a green screen commercial, at a music venue recording a live performance, or on location shooting a film, our film and television production company’s ability to adapt to every set environment allows us to achieve the most professional and dynamic results.  The Tiger House Films team has extensive real-life experience in the industry. This experience allows us to troubleshoot any situation that may (and most certainly will) arise during any stage of film or television production. As we say there is no substitute for learning by doing but our ability to solve those problems is what gives us the edge.

Our Los Angeles production company is unique in the sense that we as a team bring an artistic film making approach to all of our projects. There is much to be said about this approach due to the fact that many would consider for instance, commercials, to blandly cater to mass audiences. Contrarily, we believe that there is a way to create video projects which are universally aesthetically pleasing with a strong message about the product without losing refinement within the end result.

Our creativity as a film and television production company crosses over into the world of music videos, where we believe visuals and style are most important, and film, where story is king. On live performances, our technical knowledge and creative camera work define us as we understand how to adapt to the unpredictable nature of these productions. We at Tiger House Films are filmmakers and we love what we do every day.

ABOUT THIS MUSIC VIDEO PRODUCTION:

A Tiger House Films music video production, “Lost” by Aubrey Bouskill, is the Pop Single Release off of her debut album “HindSight”. Born in Placentia CA, Pop/Rock/Contemporary “Singer Songwriter” Aubrey Bouskill is an extremely talented musician from Southern California.

Los Angeles Film and Television production company Tiger House Films has always had the philosophy that solid film making comes from the discipline of old school, in-camera imagery through means of camera work, lighting, acting and special effects. The final product being the result of something tangible. Let us mention a famous example of where (in our humble opinion) VFX went wrong due to overuse: the Star Wars prequel series.

Though our views remain solidly unchanged on the subject, our recent work with the visual effects has opened our eyes to the possibility of building upon that discipline through the means of post production graphics. Working with a talented crew to create beautiful imagery and having the ability to tell a story is the most significant achievement a content creator can ask for yet when the project calls for it, there are true aesthetic benefits to creating some dynamic post production visuals to complete a project.

Our film and television production company’s most recent projects delving into the visual effects realm include; A photo and video media campaign for Hyundai shot digitally on green-screen, and branded content for major brands SK-II and National Geographic. All of these film and television productions were enhanced aesthetically by having a talented post production visual effects artist working with us every step of the way from pre-production drafting and on-set supervision to post.

We have collectively come to the realization that our film and television production company is now existing in the digital age where 4k RAW cameras are readily available on the consumer pricing level and the emergence of groundbreaking films create the sense that the possibilities for the future of VFX are bright and limitless.

Are you a singer or a member of a band? Would you like to have a music video produced to showcase your talent? This blog post will walk you through some of the basics of music video production and what to expect.

Before reading onward about music video production, you might be wondering who we are. Tiger House Films is a creative production company in Los Angeles that serves artists worldwide. Our mission is to approach each and every music video production with technical precision and extreme creativity. We pride ourselves on creating dynamic and visually stunning content. We hope you’ll consider us for your music video production needs. If you would like more information, request a free copy of our music video production guide, a helpful document that will walk you through the entire process from start to finish.

In our eyes, there are seven major stages in music video production. Here they are, with a brief description of each stage.

Free Consultation

A potential music video production should always begin with a free consultation. (We offer free consultations to all our prospective clients, with no obligation.) During the consultation, the music video production company should get to know you, your style, what you envision for your music video and much more. Expect a rough estimate of the music video’s cost when the consultation is over. It should then be up to you to decide if you want to move forward with the music video production company. When the consultation is over, ask yourself if you feel satisfied with the initial interaction between your band and the company.

Music Video Collaboration

Once you to decide to move forward with a production company, expect their creative team to help you finalize a story for your music video. Ideally, the music video production company’s staff will communicate back-and-forth with you several times regarding changes until both sides are satisfied with the finalized concept. Why the back-and-forth? Some musicians have a simple vision in mind, while others have a more intricate concept in mind. The music video production company should be able to tell you if your concept fits your budget, and if not, how you can both compromise to achieve a music video that everyone’s satisfied with.

Music Video Pre-Production

In the pre-production phase, the music video production company should propose shoot locations, film permits, catering, lighting, camera equipment, crew, shot listing, story-boarding, scheduling and more. While we said it all in one sentence, make no mistake: there is a tremendous amount of detailed work involved in pre-production. This is where the expertise of the music video production company really comes in handy, saving you much time and effort. It’s important to get the music video produced correctly, without mistakes that may cost you time and money. Any remaining questions you have should be addressed here, prior to finalizing the shoot dates. Pre-production can be highly technical in nature, so if you don’t know much about equipment and lighting, for example, ask the production company to elaborate on the details in layman’s terms so you can learn more about their choices and recommendations. Creative collaboration is encouraged as the video is purely a representation of the artist or band.

Talent Selection

Some music videos feature only the singer or band, while other music videos feature actors and models alongside the artists. The music video production company should be able to screen talent or work with local casting services and talent agencies to ensure that great talent is auditioned for your music video. You may also want to ask if you get to be a part of the casting. Some musicians are hands-off and want this casting process done for them with video of the final round of auditions sent to them, while others are very hands-on and want to be a physical presence in the casting room. In the end, you’ll want to ensure the music video production company and the band come to a mutual agreement regarding the talent.

Shoot Dates

Prior to the shoot date, the music video production company should provide you with a call-sheet and schedule for the day of the shoot. If you aren’t used to reading a call-sheet, they can look a bit daunting, so don’t hesitate to ask questions.

On the day of the shoot, you will tell your music video’s story on film, scene-by-scene. Expect a music video shoot day to last at least eight hours, if not twelve or more. Though this sounds lengthy, it’s important to understand why. Each scene in the music video may be shot multiple times and from different angles or perspectives and lit properly to give it a cinematic feel. This gives the music video production company’s editor and director many choices to work with in the editing room so they can tell your story perfectly.

Post-Production and Editing

During the post-production and editing phase, the music video production company should review the raw footage taken on the shoot dates and carefully place it together to tell your story.  They should also complete color correction, audio mixing that synchronizes your pre-recorded audio with the film footage, and any visual effects that may go into the video. If you have not yet professionally recorded the audio of your song for the music video, ask the production company what your options are. (For example, at Tiger House Films, we can arrange for this to be done during pre-production at a professional recording facility.)

Finalizing Your Music Video

At this stage, the music video production company should present you with a rough draft of your music video and make sure you are satisfied with the finished product. A limited amount of tweaks are available for the initial production cost, and further edits can be negotiated on an hourly basis. Once the music video is approved and finalized, you should receive a finished copy on DVD or Blu-ray along with Full HD and Internet compression Quicktime files. Promotional clips of the music video may be provided upon request.

Thanks for stopping by the Tiger House Films blog, and we look forward to speaking with you about your music video production needs. In the mean time, check out some IMVDB Database music videos.
