Booking a music video or AI visualiser: what to expect

By Joseph Wright, One-Life Media. 5 October 2026

You have a track and you want people to see it, not just hear it. This guide explains the options, what they cost and what happens from your first message to the finished video.

Step one: choose your format

Most of our music work falls into three formats. Each one suits a different goal and budget.

AI visualiser, from £150

An AI-generated visual for a single track, ready for YouTube and social media. It is a quick way to give a release a strong look without a film shoot.

Filmed music video, from £290

A filmed promotional video, planned around your budget. We shoot on location, from busy stations to hotels, using compact kit that keeps costs down.

Motion graphics, on request

Animated logos, video effects and short social clips. These work well alongside a release, or to give your brand a moving logo.

Which one should you pick?

Pick an AI visualiser if you want striking visuals quickly, or your budget is tight.
Pick a filmed video if you want your audience to see you perform, or the song belongs to a real place.
Combine them if you want the best of both. We often mix location footage with AI-built scenes.

Not sure? Tell us about the track and we will suggest what fits.

Step two: tell us about your project

Email or call us with what you need and when you need it. The more we know, the more accurate your quote will be.

It helps to have these ready:

The track, or a demo of it.
Your release date, if you have one.
Two or three videos you like the look of.
Any locations, colours or ideas you already have in mind.
Your budget, even if it is a rough range.

Step three: get a clear quote

Every project is different, so our prices are starting points. We confirm the price, what you get and the dates in writing before any work begins.

That way there are no surprises. You know exactly what you are paying for.

Step four: we create it

You work directly with the people shooting, editing and building your project, from the first call to the final cut.

For a filmed video

We plan the shots and the locations with you, then film. Small, mobile kit means we can work in public spaces without a large crew.

After the shoot, we edit and colour grade the footage. Videos can be delivered in Full HD (1080p) or Ultra HD (4K).

For an AI visualiser

We turn your ideas into written prompts and generate the images for each scene. Then we animate them with AI video tools and edit everything to your track.

What you can do to help

Be clear on the feeling. A few words like "dark and moody" or "bright summer" go a long way.
Share references. A video you love tells us more than a long description.
Leave time before release. Booking early gives room for planning, filming and editing.

After delivery

Your finished video is yours to use. An AI visualiser is made ready for YouTube and social media, so you can post it as soon as the track is out.

Short clips cut from the video work well as teasers before release. Motion graphics, such as an animated logo, can tie your releases together over time.
