Documentary Production 3

We got to the filming part of the process and it was really fun! We got to the house and set up all of our equipment, it took quite a while as it was me and one other group member, as the other couldn’t make it. But we managed to get both cameras set up for the different angles and the lighting turned out really cool. It was a blue hue and the quality looked amazing for it too! The interview was a little tough at first as he was slightly closed off, but he opened up as the interview went on. I was really interested in what his work was and what he had to say about everything. I was manning the second camera on his side view, and it came to quite an issue later on because we didn’t properly light the second angle as well as the first one, so the shots were rather confusing as they didn’t line up physically. Overall I thought our filming process went really well and smooth, as well as the interview! There were times where it strayed off topic, but I don't think that can be helped much. I also wish we had planned out second shot out better as it was a waste of the second angle use. One of my favorite parts is the lighting, pictured below!

I thought the lighting was so cool and we even asked him before hand what color fits him the most, and he said blue! It came out so crisp and was super unique to our project. Additionally, our sound quality also came out so crisp and captured everything really well! Overall I think this was my favorite part of the whole process as it was such an interesting interview and everything really tied together with the different technological aspects.
