Music Videos

We bought a camera recently...a little Panasonic video camera. I have been envisioning videos since the inception of MTV and now I really want to begin creating. My husband does well at film...I do well at choreography, costuming...has anyone ever used dancers/performers in their videos? I am hoping to eventually choreograph (and maybe even perform, although I am a bit on the older side for this) dance/movement to ambient/world/tribal/darkwave...or heck just about anything else. My background is heavy ballet (16 years) and about 3 years bellydance, 2 years Jazz. I've choregraphed 2 school musicals...once when I was 13 and then again last year. I'm ready to move to music videos! Anyone have experience here?

this makes me think of the stunning "Pas de Deux" by Norman McLaren from 1968.
