Evaluation for Shoot 2)

After looking over through 60 shots from shoot 2 on the 11th of November, there not exactly how i want them to look, and there are many things i should have set on the camera to produce a better clear and more effective shot. This is why i have decided i am going to go on a 3rd shoot and shoot a few shots again taking on board what i have noticed and learnt from, throughout looking over shoot 2.

I also didn't account for such short time of natural day light when filming. So we ran out of natural light a lot earlier then i had planned, which meant my shots were darker then i had wished for, which is what i'm going to make sure i plan for on shoot 3. I will start filming much earlier.

Here are a few screen shots from shoot 2 showing the negatives.

In this first screen shot, you can see I haven't set the white balance at the correct level, which is why Lauren's face looks very orange and un natural in the shot.

In this second shot, the framing could be set so much better. Because of the natural direction our human eyes chose to look and focus on when looking at something especially someone, we are look in front of them, the directing they are usually facing or heading towards. However, in this shot there is plenty of un-needed wasted space. The white wall we can see on Jack's left takes up far to much of the shot, and when i re-shoot i will cut down the amount of white wall so we can just see the slightest view of it, and jack starts as far to left side of the frame as possible.

In this third screen shot of one of my shots, its hard to see to the extent of the flickering light, but in this shot I didn't have the camera on its correct setting so there was rolling light throughout the shot, which just ruins the whole shot all together.


These are the main reasons why I am doing a shoot 3, so i can make my shots and overall video to a much higher standard and not make stupid mistakes.
