IIRC it isn't their first collaborative work. Gaga previously appeared in Rodriguez' films. 

But however big it is, that "made with iphone" video must've contributed a lot in the budget of this video :vegas:

If I remember correctly "Judas" is one of her most expensive videos.


Not sure the exact cost but people tried saying $10 million but I think she denied that (not putting any sources cause idk if its true lol)

💙 obviously we owe Francis Lawrence Bad Romance :worship2:

He's done Constantine, I am a Legend, Water for Elephants, and of course 3 of the 4 Hunger Games.

I don't see him as a filmmaker legend though compared to Robert Rodriguez, not tea no shade.  

Kind regards

Yep I remember that and allegedly one thing that cost so much was that motorbike scene. They had to shut a highway.

Not the most expensive but I think it's really expensive considering that the CGI was on point.

I wish Chromatica would be a visual album! Imagine shooting a MV with Blackpink for Sour Candy!

Didn't she state she got to film at Hearst Castle for free?

Edit: I think it was that she was allowed to film there unlike most productions because she brought awareness to the water difficultly they were dealing with. 

omg yes I remember that whole water awareness thing ! 

I might be wrong then thinking that the location/settings cost a lot 

Kind regards

I think looking at the cost of Taylor’s “Me!” gives us an idea of what the budget might have been - around a million. It’s mostly CGI, just very well done. I am working as an art director and I’ve done a few campaigns now with a list celebrities and infamous photographers and film makers and my first learning was: they’re usually not as expensive as one might think at first. Gaga has acquired a lot of really good creative people around her so it’s no wonder that they can make something really good and expensive looking even out of a “small” budget :golfclap:

Very interesting. I think epic music videos nowadays are "less expensive" than in the 90s. Scream by Michael Jackson is still apparently the most expensive one (cost 7 million at the tine, adjusted to 11 million now). It would cost much much less to make today.  

Kind regards

She worked with Ridley Scott as well. Surely that counts as a big filmmaker

I think Million Reasons is her cheapest video.

It probably cost more than Beautiful Dirty Rich :lolga:

Which is infinitely times better. And i'd add iconic. It was, for many years a part of the Vh1 ad. And it just felt right. Budget isn't everything

Videos got cheaper and cheaper as technology advanced. This is why most of the videos listed are from the 90s or 00s.
