Top advice IIB - the best music videos I have done have used a combination of some of the above.
I do the marker thing with the music track streached to 'see' the music and listen listen listen play play play - the more time you spend on letting the whole project soak into the synapses the better - it just all comes together suddenly and 'eureka' - I love those moments.
Its a combination of a technical process that you find your own way through and that slower creativity thing.
That is never going to be fast or easy and it is a very personal process.

Too right Mark!!! And those Eureka Moments are a drug to me.
PLUS, what might look like a " simple" edit has taken hours to do and often YEARS in the craft-skilling process.

That would be a bias ;> 
Biases can often stifle creativity and free-thought, and are inherent cognitive 'defects'-(depending on the context) that we all must deal with. Unperfect the "perfection" which is not perfect, is the thought-style I promote.
Like right now I need to reinstall Windoze. It's going to be a tedious drawn out ordeal, but afterwards the rewards will be overwhelming.

OK, I'm starting to develop a complex.
I could just about live with myself after my strong tendency towards literal rather than lateral thought was pointed out (when I mentioned I lost interest in the Black Eyed Peas at Wembley at Live Earth when I found all my effort was being concentrated on deciphering what was being said /sung/grunted - another forum, another thread, remember Grazie?`)
And now, because I expect that when I select something, my cursor will be moved to the start of that selection rather than the end, its an indication that my creativity and free-thought is stifled.
I'd top myself, but I probably can't think of a creative way in which to do it (though I'd probably argue the toss about what camera/format/media to use)
