Studio Shooting - Evaluation

Shooting Evaluation Draft 1

After filming our studio scene, we noticed several problems with the footage when watching  it back. Looking at this we were able to pick up on key problems that we we ran into, and as such we can evaluate the footage and see how we can improve for future shots.

In both of these tracking shots you can clearly see the shadow of the cameraman. This was caused by the lighting set up in the room, and as a result makes the footage unusable as it looks very tacky and unprofessional. To fix this problem we have decided to reshoot these shots in another location with a different lighting setup to avoid shadows across the performer's faces.

The setting of this shows a piece of art hanging on the wall, along with the black curtain we were using running out. This really brings the audience out of the video and as such we will have to reshoot it.

The focus in this shot is slightly off. This means that we will have to reshoot as, although it is only a short segment of our video, it lowers the quality greatly and hurts our final product.

The framing and mise en scene in this shot aren't as we expected. This is due to the shot being framed at a slight angle, giving a large space on one side compared to the other, also we want to make the frame of this shot a lot tighter, cutting out a lot of the empty black space in the background. The mise en scene in this shot is very empty; we will try and add more lights and studio props to give it a more busy and interesting look, whilst also helping to create the impression of this being filmed in a set up studio.
