I think this video actually cost around 800-900k to produce and if I had done it, maybe 300k.

 

All of the directors basically say the only reason the video maybe, sorta, cost over 500k is because of Britneys expensive glam squad and those barely visible sharks. But they also say there is no way in hell that video even cost 1.5 million.

I don't know who lied and told ya'll that video cost 6.5million dollars. :hahaha:  ,,,,but STOP IT! You sound like a bunch of fools!  :tiffsmoke:

Honestly a good director can make something out of nothing. BOMT was shot in a school and like 2 outfits and a shitload of charisma- look how that turned out

RCA seems to sabotage whatever music video Britney and her directors agree upon .... so , really its going to be up to them.

Who are you responding to? I didn't know how expensive the WB mv was tbh :cricket:

For the past 3 years people have been saying the Work ***** video cost around 10million dollars and saying that its Britneys most expensive music video ever.lol I bet RCA started that rumor to make it seem like they were doing the most for Britney when in reality they were doing the minimum. :cricket:

Are you talking about the Make Me... music video? RCA felt like the original video was too raunchy and demanded that David Lachapelle tone down the video. He refused and they decided to not to use his footage at all because that meant they would have to pay him for the rights.

Every other reason is bullshit. Product placement? No, that is expected. Britney not liking the video? No, she shot the video and knew what the scenes looked like.

RCA also cancelled the original Perfume music video because they felt it wasn't an accurate portrayal of the song. I ran across some interview where the CEO or President of RCA said that.

I don't know why Britney puts up with it. She's too nice. She needs a bit of blackoutney back!!

just like with gimme more... if the label doesn't like the video then she needs to go to her bank, and pay the label back for the budget they used for the video. That way Britney owns ALL a the rights and can do what the **** she wants with it. She easily had 150mill in her bank account and could easily afford to pay RCA back 500k for the mm video and 200k for the perfume video (guessing)

 

any other artist would fight for their artistry tbh. This kind of **** wouldn't happen to Beyoncé, Taylor swift or madonna. Hell, madonna would probably trash the ceo's house

I wish Britney cared enough about her craft these days to do music videos for Random songs, not just singles, just cause she loves the song. Look at artists like Marina & The Diamonds or Lana Del Ray who release multiple low budget videos that are effective. There is no reason why most tracks from Glory shouldn't have some sort of video tbh. A million dollar video budget could do 5 200k videos (BOMT/Sometimes/FTBOMBH/GM/MM all would've cost this or less).

Even with the low budget they had for the Make Me reshoot, they still could've made an AMAZING video. It's all about the director and the vision.

what? Like have you become a fan yesterday??

Of course Britney scrapped Make me video. She also scrapped WB after she shot it. It was too raunchy and so she didn't like it. But this time around David did not let them to edit HIS work so they had to scrap the whole video and shoot a new one.

 

YOU people some time really blame RCA for everything but as I can see they did a really good job throughout Britney career until Britney started refusing everything.

I honestly think it was her decision in the end. That's the only way things could sorta make sense. I'm not here for "it just didn't work" :cricket:

I highly doubt she could do that due to the conservatorship.
