'As Live' Studio Production: Promotions shoot day 3

Due to the poor quality of the footage from the first shoot day, we were given the opportunity to re shoot that scene, which was very lucky, as we were only supposed to have access to the presenters for those two days. We used the same camera that we used at the University shoot, as that footage came out at a very high quality. 

We went back to Empire and basically filmed the exact same shots that we had done a few weeks ago, as we had been told that the film was good, except for the quality.

Due to us all knowing what we were going to be filming, we managed to get all the shots that we needed in just over an hour

It is always good for an editor to have a good workflow, as this will save so much time and effort in the long run, when carrying out this workflow becomes the standard way that you carry out an edit. Doing this will also cause you less stress inn your production, which can also help your editing, as when you are stressed about it, there may be some things that you miss during the edit. All of this being carried out is what will create a better post-production experience. Through some research into editing workflows, I found that there are 7 steps to the process, which when carried out, check all the boxes of what an editor needs to do.  1.

Fiction adaptation workshop

Experimental camera angles We were tasked with using various camera techniques and angles to create a short film that included elements that we may want to include in our final piece. I chose to shoot a piece with the same theme for my final piece, which is Despair. I wanted to use a variety of shot types so that I could practice them for my real shoot. https://youtu.be/_6Nqfn8Jrjw
