Commercial Video Production for Record Labels

For record labels

Billie works across music and commercial production, so it can shoot the campaign to sit naturally on the artist’s own channels.

On the shoot

Delivery specs

Streaming and video platforms each have their own upload specs, so masters, thumbnails and vertical cuts are delivered in the formats the distributor asks for.

Clearances

Everything on screen needs clearing before release: locations, featured people, artwork, brands in shot and any sampled audio in the master.

The service

A good commercial earns attention before it asks for anything. Billie writes and shoots ads that tell a short story first, then lands the brand and the offer clearly, in formats sized for TV, YouTube, Meta and TikTok.

What’s included

Creative concept and script
Storyboards and shot lists
Full production crew
Post-production and supers
6, 15 and 30 second versions

Which retainer suits

A label releasing across a roster suits a retainer more than most: Creative at $3,000 NZD a month gives two production sessions, six edited pieces, eight to ten short-form edits and creative direction, and Studio Partner, priced on enquiry, adds weekly sessions and priority scheduling. Priority music videos with bigger treatments are usually quoted separately as Bespoke Production.

Questions

Is this a paid service?

Yes. Billie is a paid production company. Production Retainers are $1,500 NZD a month for Essential and $3,000 NZD a month for Creative, and Studio Partner is priced on enquiry. Projects outside a retainer are quoted per project as Bespoke Production.

Can a retainer be shared across several artists?

Talk to Billie about it. A retainer is a set amount of production each month, and the monthly planning is where a label decides which artists and releases it goes to.

What is included?

Creative concept and script, storyboards and shot lists, full production crew, post-production and supers, 6, 15 and 30 second versions. The exact scope depends on the brief, and every quote is put together for the project.
