First shoot - What we learnt

Our fist time filming was in early January 2015. We used the appropriate equipment and after we finished filming and uploaded the footage onto our mac we saw our mistakes and discussed how we would fix them next time. One of the mistakes we made was using too many lights as when we viewed the footage we could see that it was too bright for viewing. To correct this we decided to use fewer lights in order to create a darker more realistic feel for the live performance. We also found that the shots we used were too similar and that we would not be able to use a tripod to film all of our shots and that we would therefore need a cameraman/woman. As well as this, it taught us how long each filming session would take and made us more prepared in the future for time planning.
