duckworth 2,948 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obobo 2,033 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 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) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see him as a filmmaker legend though compared to Robert Rodriguez, not tea no shade. Kind regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to shut a highway. Kind regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonoMarryTheNight 54 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 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! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72e8D1uShwM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen of Pop 205 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 She worked with Ridley Scott as well. Surely that counts as a big filmmaker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FfFfFfFF 54,014 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Videos got cheaper and cheaper as technology advanced. This is why most of the videos listed are from the 90s or 00s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
