If you’re looking to make a music video in Namibia, there are many things to consider before you dive right in and start putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard. For example, how much does it cost to make a music video? What kind of budget should you prepare for? These are the sorts of questions you’ll want answered before you get started with any production. After all, putting together even the most amateur of videos takes time and money—and lots of it.
Location costs
The costs of making a music video vary depending on where the production takes place. In Namibia, for example, an average production budget ranges from $2,000 to $5,000.
Production costs
The production costs of a music video can range from $5,000 to $100,000. Factors that affect the price include the length and complexity of the shoot, the number of crew members needed, and whether any special filming equipment is necessary.
Equipment rental costs
Rental for equipment can vary depending on what you need. For example, lighting and grip equipment will be more expensive than camera and sound gear. If you don’t need any of that stuff, you’re looking at a few hundred dollars at the most.
