Day 15

I say my experience almost double today, at least when it comes to shooting video.

Adam sent me on a mission to work on sequencing my shots. The subject matter was transportation, just like on Monday the 18th. I went out to shoot with Bob’s Panasonic, and he let me use the wide-angle lens he has. This was my first time shooting with a wide angle lens, and it is very different. You’ll see it in the footage below.

My first take was 1 hour long, and I shot lots of clips. I tried to work on sequencing, but Adam and I agreed that it was a bit choppy and the sequencing was pretty weak.

My second take was 30 minutes long, and Adam told me to focus on just the buses. I went out and got some good shots, but the sequencing was a bit too loose.

On my last attempt I had 20 minutes to focus on just one bus stop. I felt really good about the footage I shot. Adam agreed that it was much better.

Over the course of 3 hours, I saw my footage getting better and better with every shot. My shots looked really good, but I still see room for improvement.
