# Creating a campaign with video email

Learn the fundamentals of creating a campaign [here](https://help.murlist.com/drip-campaign/how-to-create-a-drip-campaign).

To send a media email, you have to first create a media list. A media list is where you give us the data to use in sending emails to your prospects. Learn how to create a media list [here](https://help.murlist.com/video-emails/how-to-send-video-cold-emails/how-to-create-media-list). 

Once you have your media list created, you will have to go to the create campaign section. 

Click [here](https://murlist.com/organizations/murlistfqehwym/campaign/create) to go to create a campaign. You can change the workspace if you need to.

### Select a list

The first thing you will need to do is to select a list. This is important as the media list that will appear in the dropdown, the personalization tags will be filtered to only be from the list you select.
