Music Video Production in Whangārei and Northland
Billie sits inside a record label, so music videos are core to what it does. Every video begins with the song: a treatment that fits the track and the artist, then a shoot planned around performance, story or both.
Whangārei is Northland’s only city and the gateway to the Bay of Islands. The Hundertwasser Art Centre and Wairau Māori Art Gallery opened on the Town Basin in 2022, and the region’s coastline, forests and marae give it a look nowhere else in the country has. Billie travels to Whangārei for productions, bringing the full team or working with local crew depending on the job.
What’s included
- Treatment and creative direction
- Performance and narrative shoots
- Styling and art direction
- Edit cut to the track
- Vertical cut-downs for release week
Billie sits inside EYWA Records, so music videos are planned with the release, not after it.
How it works
- Brief: A call to understand the goal, the audience, the timeline and the budget.
- Treatment: A written and visual plan, so everyone agrees on the idea before anything is shot.
- Production: Locations, crew, cast and schedule locked in, then the shoot itself.
- Post: Edit, colour, sound and graphics, with review rounds built in.
- Delivery: Masters and cut-downs for every platform the piece will live on.
