You don't say what part of the country you are from but there are small film makers and film associations all over. Try looking them up on the net and finding out about auditioning through them.  I've been in a couple local shorts that have gone to international festivals. it's a good way to get your foot in the door.\n\nLocal commercials can be a good jumping off point.  Call local add agencies and see what they say.\n\n Then you'll want to see about an agent and you need to set up a web sight.

The question's pretty vague, but most website hosting places like Geocities have a 'File Upload' button on the main screen. But a music video wouldn't be in gif format.

First off, make sure you copyright it. As far as production goes, you can hire a studio with a really good producer and record it yourself. No one in the music industry is going to accept unsolicited material. You need to promote it and get it heard. This is a long difficult process. In music it's the truth that you have to spend money to make money. Also try songramp.com. There is no charge for membership and there are hundreds of independent producers and artists. You can post your lyrics in the "lyrics seeking music" category. If you're serious don't give up.

Study the films of your favorite directors, over and over again until you know virtually every camera shot.  Read scripts every chance you get. Learn to storyboard. Write a short (3-5 minutes) screenplay and shoot it. Learn how to operate a camera and editing equipment. Shoot a couple 15 minute films. If necessary take classes to meet the right people. Now you are ready. Good luck.

Pick up industry magazines and submit a resume to various places.  \n\nIf you are a student, you should get an internship.  They do not pay you, but you get experience to put on the resume.  YOu work your way from the mail room to the higher ranks, and pay your dues.\n\nI know Variety is an industry magazine for the film industry, so maybe check out mags like Billboard or ??? \n\nSorry I am not in the music industry to know the right ones.

Well, To judge a music video, various factors have to be considered including the accompanying song, creativity of the director, the money involved and the overall theme. Here's my pick:\n\n1.Michael Jackson - Thriller. I salute this classic song, The most popular video till date.\n\n2.Aha - Take on Me. The most technically challenging video of its time(1984). The video shows part of the person in sketch and other parts of the real person.\n\n3.Enigma - Return To Innocence, a really creative theme, where the story rewinds from death to birth depicting the life of a person. Coldplay's Scientist is based on the same theme too.\n\n4.Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californication, an extreme creative concept, revolving around the character of a game. An intresting fact to know, is that no two lines in the song have any correlation or make any sense, but the song is simply excellent\n\n5.Coldplay - Speed Of Sound, the video shows a huge light display unit behind the performers, showing mysitc colours moving consistant with the beats. The artists are also put slightly out of focus. The first time I saw the video, I mistook the song as "Speed Of Light' because of the vivid use of colours\n\n6.Linkin Park - All songs are great. To appreciate their creativity, it would take me an hour to write\n\nThe Most Creative Artists - Fat Boy Slim, Coldplay, Moby, Weezer, Linkin Park, ATB\n\nThe Most Expensive Music Video Maker - Michael Jackson, always using the top of the line technology, always going in millions\n\nThe most downloaded music video on Internet and P2Ps - Madonna, Britney and Christine aguilera. Even though it was a live performance, I would simply describe it as pure entertainment. I don't need to explain why its popular.

Hey there. I'm an artist myself. I'm not signed or anything but I'm just out there doing my thing. I'm a singer/songwriter/guitarist who plays in the NYC Subway. Yea, it's weird but you gotta start somewhere. I earn some money with donations and also sell my cds when I'm out there playing.\n\nNow, the first thing you want to do is make a business plan. You want to know who your target audience is and how to market yourself. Are you a punk, rock or pop singer? Are you looking to play for teens, 20-25 year olds, etc? Next thing is image. You have to have an image and know what you stand for. Then I suggest you look for an agent or a manager who can book you gigs. If you have a cd, then that's good. If you don't, I suggest you start hitting the recording studios to make a demo. So, basically here are the things you need to know:\n1. Know what kind of music you want to make \n2. Know your audience\n3. Record a demo\n4. Hire an agent or manager to get you gigs\n5. After you get gigs, you gotta have a following. You gotta have people come out and see you.\n6. Radio. If you can get a song submitted to a local radio station, that's good. \n7. Dream big. As cliche as this may sound, if you put your mind into it, you can do anything. \n\nGood luck. If you really want it and have the talent, you should go for it. I'd like to know what kind of artist you are and if you have music online. I'm on www.myspace.com/shosmusic

well, start with couple of basic courses that combines them, something like introduction to films, or introduction to cienma. volunteer as a production assistant in commercials or indipendant films in your area(i'll provide websites).  You will know what you want to do once you put your hands on few projects. IM me if you need more info.

for now it doesnt matter what city you live in, every city has a recording studio. go make your demo then send it EVERYWHERE, every genre of music you can think of. The first step though is making your demo. I would do that before you even consider moving. Becuase you may move to cali, work on your demo and someone in NY wants to sign you. make the demo first lol no record comapy is gonna consider you without it. also go play at local bars and clubs to get your name out there, go play at festivals and building openings- get yourself known! I dont know what kind of music you are trying to do but my friend is a producer and I can give you his contact info but only contact him AFTER you have a demo or he will kill me lol

You need to record a demo, then start getting them out to promoters...like myself :) You will start receiving constructive criticism on the areas you need to improve and also on the areas that you excel in.  Make the demos and either submit them to our site (souled out music) or other music related sites which include TAXI, SONICBIDS, PURE VOLUME...NEVER LET GO OF YOUR DREAM, JUST KEEP WORKING AT IT!
