Footage Review Blog

We  reviewed the footage on the 9/2/15 , this was after our first two filming sessions had  commenced . This was very effcient as it revealed that the  the footage we had filmed during the second session was actually worthless as the ND filter was on .

In photography and optics, a neutral density filter or ND filter is a filter that reduces or modifies the intensity of all wavelengths or colors of light equally, giving no changes in hue of color rendition. It can be a colorless (clear) or grey filter. This made our footage appear with streaks in terrible colour , therefore made our clip look unprofessional .This is a lesson we will learn from as we will double check the settings on the camera before filming . 

Another issue we had was the shadows that appeared on the footage and we  couldn't gain a clear image .This was due to the room only having one  light-bulb  light . So  to resolve this next time we use a dedo lights . dedolight is a patented, dimable and focusable small lighthead. It is outfitted with either a 12-Volt (100 W) oder 24-Volt (150 W) halogen lightbulb. They come with an ballast. This allows us to change the lighting to stop shadows for  different  shots , this be quite a useful tool . 

The footage from the first session was assessed and we began taking parts out that we didn't require ,such as when  members  of the public had  bothered  us .Like the instant when Loic was almost touched during our time lapse . Also things such as shots that were not taken properly such as when Loic was getting up , we decided that it made the film lag , as it was jumpy and gave it a really  unprofessional  look so this was removed .
