A2 Preliminary Evaluation: Production/Shooting

Whilst shooting our preliminary video, our priorities were to make sure that we made the most of our time in lessons to shoot and trying to stick closely to the storyboard.

During the shooting of our video, we encountered numerous problems. Most of them involving the mise-en-scene. We often found that we couldn't shoot in our location as we had not booked the hall out in advance, this is something that I will learn from and make sure that this does not happen on the filming of my video, as this wasted a lot of our time.


Also, another problem that I thought was effecting our productivity during shooting was if we were missing costumes of the actors in the video. This meant that the costumes throughout the video were not consistent and that we had to shoot different shots instead of the ones we were planning to do, which again, wasted time.


Yet, as a group, we were very well organised when it came to getting all the props there at the beginning of our shooting time. We found that the drums were very difficult to get to and from the music room where we were borrowing them from, so we ensured that we had plenty of time at the beginning and then end of or shooting time to move them.

In conclusion, I feel that the shooting did not go as smoothly as it could have. When I shoot my video, I need to establish a thorough schedule which will help me to make sure that I am not wasting mine and other people's time.
