In today's two hour recording session, we managed to get many of our shots filmed. I feel like we were able to do this as we are all starting to get a much better understanding of how the camera works and what kind of camera shots give off the best views of our models. We also used different settings within our piece today rather than being stationary like in previous sessions so the camera had to be adjusted to make sure that it wasn't too dark and also the focus was correct.
One part in particular I believe worked really well was when Lewis, our lead, was against the full length windows and he became a silhouette as this worked really well with the camera. Similarly was when he was standing in front of the lightsaber lights it gave an overall glow to the room. This was not the desired effect as we again wanted a silhouette but after looking back on the recorded footage, we decided the dancing actually looked better with the glow of the lights.
One section that was hard to get a good shot on was when Lewis was walking down the corridor due to trying to keep the lighting strong without it being in the camera shot. We resolved this by using the setting to hide where the lights were being kept and also used natural lighting to give the lighting a more real look to it on the camera.
Here is a link to the photos and videos that were taken. All the footage will be added into here.
