Music Video Workshop in Sydney

Ever wondered what really goes into creating a music video? Join acclaimed music video director Paul Domingos for an immersive workshop exploring the complete creative process - from the very first idea to the finished video. With over a decade of experience and approximately 343 music videos directed since 2010, Paul will share the knowledge, lessons and behind-the-scenes experiences he has gathered throughout his career. Together, we’ll follow the journey of a music video through every stage: Idea & Creation - turning a song into images, characters, colours and concepts. Script & Storyboard - transforming ideas into a visual plan. Pre-Production - breaking down the script, planning the crew, locations, casting and equipment. Shooting - understanding the different roles on set, from directing and producing to art direction. Cinematography - exploring how light, shadow and visual choices create the mood of a scene. Post-Production - editing, colour grading, titles and visual effects to bring everything together. This is a hands-on look at the realities of music video production, including the creative decisions, practical challenges and unexpected problems that come built in.
