Re: [Avid-L2] Music Video workflow?

Hi, Mark,

Music videos are often shot in long, complete-song takes, at least if there are performance sections. If there are performance takes, then lay down your favorite, one. One big, long three and a half minute take (or however long it is). Or even if there are no performance takes, lay down the song. Then start building on top of it (on higher tracks). This base line track is your railroad track, and then you can make any type of fancy cars on top of it you wish. But at least you have a foundation to guide you.

In any case, that's how I used to do it!

David
