Now that i am done with my first preliminary video i have come to know more about how to shoot a film and ever since then i have been noticing every camera shot in whatever i watch on television. It was a lot of fun making this film. There were moments when i had to sit on a waccuum cleaner and make my friend push me. However, editing took very long and now that I've seen my film i think I've done well so far, although the lighting, i feel slightly got out of hands. Also, i ended up breaking the one-eighty degree rule without even realizing and when i showed the film to my teacher and my friends they instantly noticed. One more thing that i analysed after watching the video on the computer, the constant movement of my hand while holding the camera was a lot more obvious than it was on the camera. Since it was my first time editing, i feel my audio was not good enough and due to that my film did not have a very strong impact. Another huge mistake that i made while shooting the video was that i used the camera vertically for certain shots but when i started editing it became extremely difficult for me to rotate the shot and then i had to shoot the film all over again the next day and shoot every scene horizontally in order to get the editing right. So far i loved playing around with the camera and doing shots that i have studied about just recently. However, i found the editing a little difficult and i am glad i did it because taking up the challenge gave me a feeling of confidence and next time it wont be this hard for me.
