On his personal page, comedian Xuan Hinh recently posted a behind-the-scenes clip of the making of singer Hoa Minzy's MV Bac Bling , making the audience laugh out loud because of its humor. Although they knew in advance that the scene where the "King of Northern Comedy" flies over the water and talks to the camera was done using special effects, only when they saw the behind-the-scenes footage of Xuan Hinh performing with a green screen and a podium did viewers understand how elaborately the images for the MV were prepared.

Regarding the costumes, stylist Khuc Manh Quan shared that the process of preparing costumes for nearly 300 people in Lac Xa, Que Tan, Que Vo, Bac Ninh - Hoa Minzy's hometown was very elaborate.

"My group of 6 people prepared more than 300 costumes for the MV filming. Including the press conference, the number was more than 500 sets, so it took more than a week to search and collect the items. We had to rent a private car to transport the loads of clothes to Bac Ninh, gathering them at each filming location," Khuc Manh Quan said.

The process of making Bac Bling took place over 3 days. In particular, the quilted jackets by designer Quyen Nguyen cost hundreds of millions of VND so they were carefully preserved. The elderly were only allowed to change their jackets 15 minutes before filming to ensure they were not damaged.

All of Hoa Minzy’s costumes are from the latest collection, specially designed by designer Cao Minh Tien. For the costumes of the extras, Khuc Manh Quan has to balance quality, quantity and cost. He buys from Vietnamese brands or rents performance costumes. For the velvet scarves and turbans of the elders, he goes to craft villages in Ha Dong.

Previously, Khuc Manh Quan had accompanied Hoa Minzy in the MV Thi Mau . He is also familiar with music products and youth television dramas. The first time he prepared clothes for the old ladies, he felt a lot of pressure.

"Each elderly person has a different body shape and my team has to prepare each outfit. From the velvet scarf, earrings, quilted shirt, ao tu than... everything has to be carefully selected to suit each elderly person's body shape," said the stylist.

With 300 sets of costumes, before each scene, the costume team spent hours arranging and preparing. For big scenes like filming in the communal house yard, the crew had to work from morning to afternoon to finish. While the team was preparing costumes for the big scenes, Khuc Manh Quan still had to be on duty, constantly adjusting Hoa Minzy's costumes and preparing for the next scenes.

After many collaborations with Hoa Minzy, the male stylist said he was impressed with the professionalism and dedication of the female singer. All products are invested in by Hoa Minzy in every small detail before being released. Costumes are always prepared with many options so that in case when filming, if it is not suitable, the whole team will immediately have a replacement costume.

The MV was filmed continuously for 3 days, sometimes until 4-5am, but the female singer did not show any signs of fatigue, on the contrary, she encouraged the whole team to always be happy and full of energy.
