Write a draft 'treatment'. This should include information on your target audience and how you are attracting them, location plans, equipment plans, crew roles, effects in video etc. 3 hours  A treatment is a document that presents the story idea of your music video. A video treatment is your best effort in defining your project, presenting a clear synopsis of your story, developing your production and organising its purpose.
