Written by two acclaimed recording artists who've been producing their own award-winning music videos for several years, it shows you step-by-step how to get from an idea to an MTV-worthy result on a shoestring budget -- even if you've never worked with video before. Packed with easy-to-understand instructions, hands-on exercises and fascinating road diaries that illuminate the inspiration behind video concepts and special effects, it's all you need to become a music video star.

* If you saw a video on TV and said, "I could make a much better video than that," here's your chance.
* If you want to become a professional music videographer, this book is a great place to start.
