Lyric Videos FAQs

• What is a lyric video?

  A lyric video is a video that is used to promote the upcoming release of a song. Just like a music video can promote an artist, a lyric video promotes the song or release of the song. Instead of using images or video clips, lyric videos are composed of typography. Many artists choose to release lyric videos before music videos to create a buzz and draw in more listeners to gain exposure.

• What services are there for lyric videos?

  The services offered for lyric videos vary by seller and design. Some sellers offer animated lyric videos while others only produce typography. The song or resource being promoted will control which one is best. Additionally, the design of lyric videos retains different characteristics, such as text fonts, color schemes and backgrounds. Moreover, you can choose to add multi-platform optimization and ultra HD 4k resolution to boost the quality of the video.

• Who can use lyric videos?

  Anyone who creates songs can take advantage of lyric videos. Singers and songwriters frequently utilize lyric videos to gain traction for an upcoming release. These lyric videos can be posted on various social media platforms, such as YouTube, Instagram, Tik Tok and Facebook to drive traffic. Additionally, many YouTube freelancers create lyric videos for songs already released. However, be sure you aren’t engaging in copyright violations.

• Is a lyric video considered a music video?

  A lyric video is different from a music video. A music video involves live action, such as individuals singing in real-time. On the contrary, a lyric video is generally only text. This is useful for songs that don’t have a music video yet and are looking to boost visibility. Moreover, many new artists don’t have the funds to create a music video, making a lyric video a great alternative. Nevertheless, both a lyric video and music video are generated to increase the listener’s presence and are posted on similar platforms.

• What information do I need to provide to sellers for my lyric video?

  The most important piece of information you will need to provide sellers is the audio file. This is usually the song you plan on releasing. Additionally, you should give general guidance on the direction of the lyric video including desired color schemes and background images. Many sellers can help you determine what your creative vision is through communicating in the messenger function. Furthermore, provide sellers with an expected time frame you need your lyric video by to ensure they have the necessary time to complete the project.

• Where can I publish my lyric video?

  Lyric videos are published on a multitude of different platforms. The most common platform is YouTube, which gives artists the ability to upload full length lyric videos. However, consumer demand is changing the way you may need to publish your videos with short-term video apps, like Tik Tok, gaining popularity. Tik Tok only allows short videos to be posted, usually under a minute, making it important to select the right frame to peak listener interest.
