I am not gonna waste my shot!

 One shot 

  Hello there! This weekend I got to spend my Saturday recording one scene. The process wa s much harder than expected, w head to overcome a bunch of obstacles and tackle a huge issue in our production. I want o be clear about our thinking process before I dwell more into what went wrong.

 

The process

 

    When conducting this shoot, we decided to write a script for our actor to read along and follow what to say to the exact vowel. I cant emphasize how important it is to have either a storyboard or a script, this made the shooting much more smoother than what I expected. I don’t have the photo but when you watch our clips you will see exactly what we said. We decided to write it down on paper, it seemed much more convenient and easier for the actor to read.

 


    Upon shooting though, that’s when complications arose. We decided to go with one the methods I mentioned last post. And use a TV to illustrate the breaking news to make it much more convenient. We needed this clips to be 15 – 20 seconds long, we found a videos that was 1 minute long. You may think thsi would have much issues, but whenever you actors forgets a line or makes a mistake you need to reshoot no? That can take up to three different shoots and majority marks the end of the background video. As shown above you can see this error.

 

   However, thanks to Vicky’s mom memorization skills, we were able to tackle this obstacle. Even if it took a few tries we were able to get a green finished product. I believe this was our best shoot and no green screen was necessary!

 


  Although, it doesn’t seem AS realistic, and our actor did seem to have her eyes glazing elsewhere, we hope to reshoot using the green method soon as there nothing wrong with having extra footage! That’s all for today see you guys next time!
