Record Label Video Production Queenstown

In Queenstown

Queenstown and the Central Otago landscapes around it are used by international film and commercial shoots, and they suit a label’s biggest videos: lakes, alpine roads and open country. Billie travels there with the full team or works with local crew.

Queenstown sits on Lake Wakatipu under the Remarkables, and it is one of New Zealand’s best-known places for weddings, adventure tourism and alpine scenery. International film and commercial shoots use the Central Otago landscapes around it.

Billie travels to Queenstown for productions, bringing the full team or working with local crew depending on the job.

What it’s for

A label needs video across a whole roster at once: music videos for priority singles, visualisers for album tracks, vertical content for every release week, live sessions and press photos for the publicists.

The work is constant, and it has to stay true to each artist while fitting the label’s release schedule. Billie is part of EYWA Records, so it knows how a release plan runs from the inside. That means shoots planned around delivery dates, budgets and the different needs of each artist.

On the shoot

Artist approvals

Artists and managers usually approve treatments and cuts, so the schedule leaves room for their feedback before anything is locked.

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.

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.
