Fifth Column Films

Fifth Column Films has been lucky enough to work with a lot of New York’s best musicians, whether recording concerts, shooting interviews or making music videos. Our biggest project to date was the Musica Fresca tour in September of 2006, taking us on the road to shoot over 30 bands nationwide. Music and film are a natural match and we fit in fine.

On this page you’ll find examples of many different types of music related projects. We are equipped to shoot live shows with up to five cameras, we have created Electronic Press Kits in a variety of styles and have shot or edited a dozen music videos.
