The pre-production stage is most important, whether you are making a music video or feature film as time spent in pre-production will show in the quality of your finished video. Even if it's just getting a few ideas down on paper so that you have a beginning, middle and end will make a big difference. If you want to get into camera shots and storyboarding that's entirely up to you.
