Creating a Cinematic Music Video for Rising Talent Nicola Tee

When Nicola Tee reached out to me at Luke Batchelor Productions, she had a clear goal: to create a standout music video of her performing a powerful cover of Sam Smith’s Lay Me Down.

As an emerging artist, Nicola wanted a video that would not only showcase her vocal talent but also resonate visually with industry producers, managers, and potential clients. We filmed on-location in Canterbury, Kent, creating a moody, atmospheric performance piece that captured her artistry and individuality.

Why Invest in a Professional Music Video?

Whether you're an emerging artist or an established performer, a high-quality music video is a must-have. It’s your chance to present your music in a way that resonates, connects, and leaves a lasting impression. A cinematic video helps you stand out in a saturated industry, giving your audience — and industry insiders — something compelling to connect with.

About the Shoot: Bringing Vision to Life in the Woods of Canterbury

Filming took place in a quiet woodland setting near Canterbury, offering the perfect natural backdrop for Nicola's soulful rendition. The contrast of her vibrant red and soft white coats against the earthy tones of the woods allowed her to visually "pop" in every frame.

I handled the entire production from start to finish — scripting, directing, filming, and editing — to ensure the final piece truly reflected Nicola’s voice and personality. Every frame was crafted to feel emotionally intimate yet cinematic, putting the focus exactly where it belonged: on her performance.
