YM- Reflection of Studio Shoot

On 16/11/2011 we spent roughly around 5 hours in the studio shooting our final shots for our music video ready to complete the editing process after.  
In many ways this shoot was a great success:

  • We got footage to use as stop animation to add more variety and a more urgent sense of fun and enjoyability to our video. 
  • We got a range of close-ups and mid shots to make the video seem more like a music video rather than a short film.
  • We managed to shoot our actors singing to the track allowing us to have lip-syncing in the video: something we didn't initially think we'd do.
However, we did encounter some problems during and after the shoot:
  • The shooting took longer than we initially intended as we chose to shoot all our actors seperately so we could use the footage with effects, such as split screens and stop animation.  The stop animation footage definitely took a lot of time.
  • We didn't set the white balance before we began shooting and therefore when we uploaded our footage to premiere, the lighting and shadow was all wrong, some shots were even unusable which means we will now have to re-shoot those particular shots. 
However, I believe this shoot was successful overall.
