Performance Filming

This weekend we filmed the performance side to our video at Robbie's house. As I was the chief camera operator, I had to make sure that camera 1, filming the master shots, was correctly framed before filming simultaneously the handheld shots on camera 2. On day one I had help with filming, but on the second day I was filming alone. Unfortunately for me, during day 2 we filmed the strobe and smoke. This meant that at points I was having to operate the manual smoke machine, handheld strobe, a camera and was manually zooming. This has proved to be the hardest thing I have had to do yet, but hopefully we got some great footage.

We have planned to film the final performance footage on Wednesday. This will include all of the UV. Unfortunately I will not be able to be there as I have prior, important arrangements, however the boys seem certain that with a few runners, they will be able to get all the footage successfully.
