Hi to all - hope everyone is doing well
Has anyone here had a video made of one of their songs? Are there any avenues you could suggest for achieving this on a budget? (project for video production students perhaps?)
I have no illusions about this as a financial operation - I know it would be a pure cost and the likelihood of monetising the result is close to zero.
So far, I have the song. That's it. No visual ideas for the video other than to tie-in with what is a 'story' song.
Any help, comments, pointers would be greatly appreciated.
thanks all the best Marc

This was done with Band in a Box and Presonus Studio One Pro. Cost may be a problem though. Not sure of your budget. Ashokan Farewell (Cover) There is a way of making videos in Band In A Box but I haven't really tried it. Maybe someone has other ideas. ...Deb

Quite a few people here have made videos of their songs. There are a few inexpensive programs available that do video editing, you can even get decent results with movie maker, which comes free with Windows. There are a couple of other free programs out there too I think.
There are also lots of royalty free video clips available online that you can incorporate into your video. The last few videos we have done have used a combination of performance video and royalty free clips, and they turn out pretty good I think.
I have a link to our YouTube channel in my signature if you are interested in seeing what we have done.

Also, with the advent of more improved cell phones, any of them made in the past few years have really good capability to record video.

Thanks for these responses. I guess my original post wasn't clear. I'm not looking to make the thing myself (I have neither the time, the aptitude nor the talent) but to get it made by a service provider.

Be sure you have all the rights to use any photos and video in your video or else YouTube will monitize it for the owner of the copyrighted content.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
