I’m an Ottawa singer-songwriter looking for a creative video for my unreleased song “PLANS I HAVE.” The song is under 3 minutes and I’m aiming for an emotional, cinematic feel throughout the video. Key Requirements: City walks (most important for emotional impact), empty parking lots, subtle driving scenes, and guitar performance shots Smooth/steady cam filming for walking scenes Combination of natural street lighting and artificial moody lighting Video should also work well for IG/TikTok clips Ideal Skills & Experience: Experience filming and editing cinematic music videos Strong understanding of lighting, composition, and storytelling Ability to create engaging short-form social media content Style Reference: The intimate cinematic style of artists like JERUB — emotional storytelling, authentic performance moments, moody lighting, and visuals that feel personal and reflective rather than overly commercial. Please provide samples of previous work or portfolio links.

Hello, I am an Ottawa‑based cinematographer and video editor with extensive experience creating intimate, cinematic music videos for singer‑songwriters. I will direct and shoot your video for “PLANS I HAVE” using a combination of handheld gimbal for smooth city walks, static tripod shots for guitar performances, and subtle in‑car sequences, all lit with a mix of natural street light and portable LED panels to achieve the moody, emotional atmosphere you want. I will scout locations in Ottawa (downtown streets, empty parking lots after dusk, quiet residential roads for driving scenes) that match the reflective tone of the song. The final video will be delivered in 4K for YouTube and reformatted into square/vertical clips for Instagram and TikTok. My editing style focuses on authentic performance moments, slow pacing, and colour grading that enhances the melancholic yet hopeful feel. I have worked with local artists and can share a portfolio of previous music videos that feature similar cinematic walking and performance shots. My fixed price for the full project (shooting + edit) is $1,200 CAD. Best regards.
