Ben Peters : Music Video Director

Today in my media lesson we had the opportunity to meet an experienced music director that goes by the name of Ben Peters. He has worked with artist such as Davinche, N-Dubz, Bashy and Ghetts as well as many other artists. He talked to us about different jobs which are found on a video shoot set for example producer,cinematographer etc and what each job includes . He also taught us how to produce a treatment which refers to a description of the concept of the music video. Treatments are written to help people visualize what the video will look like.



As a music director one of Ben Peters role is to write treatments. He discussed with our class the process of him making treatments and showed us an example of a treatment that he had done for N-Dubz- I need you. he also showed us some videos which he had directed.

.

Ben peters helped me to widened my knowledge and understanding on how music videos are made and what happens on a video shoot. I found it really helpful.


Below are some of the videos that he has directed:


N-Dubz- Wouldn't You




J2K -Danger
