It's just that. They're new artists with no big fan base so they cant have high budget videos like 50.
yeh
depending on the proven fan base an artist has they get a standard budget for each song
example they get £15,000 to make a track
£2000 on studio time
£500 on beat
£500 to get a ft on it
£4000 on promotion
£8000 on the video
thats the way it works, obv. thats only an example but its basically how it is.
sometimes if the artist isnt releasing the single into the mainstream they wont get enough for a video, so theyll cut back and go to a smaller studio, get a cheaper beat get a un-known freind to ft cut back in promotion then get a cheap video...
