To begin with, Juanmi Cristóbal tells you about his professional career and the jobs that have enriched him the most on a personal level. He also shares you his influences, from the fields of painting to video games.
Learn how to work with a script and what to do if you don't have one. Next, Juanmi teaches you ways to organize and select the material, as well as to analyze the context and connotations of a song.
Later, discover the different types of video clips and their expressive possibilities. Start by exploring the concert video and the fiction video, which consists of telling a story. Then study the one shoot, widely used in rap and hip-hop, and freestyle, such as video art or video lyrics.
Now delve into the technique, with the creation of sound environments beyond the theme and audio arrangements. Also carry out the color correction with Premiere and DaVinci, and assess the titling options that have the power to transform your piece.
Get ready to do some tests with your contact list to find out what works and what doesn't. To wrap things up, export the final result in different formats, from full quality to the one appropriate for sharing on social networks.
