DH Reflection on Shoot 2

The second shoot took place on the 28th October at Tom's house, it was far easier than the first shoot since it was just us two, and we did not have much equipment compared to before. We took a video camera and tripod, a normal camera, the track and dolly, and a guitar, as well as several photos we had taken at the previous shoot of the band.
Again, my role was to direct and film, we filmed the narrative parts and because continuity is important to these, the storyboard was very useful and I followed it closely.
One of the challenges was space, specifically, the tracking shot of the door. The doorway here was just slightly too small for the track to pass through, so I took one side of the dolly's `H` frame off, we discovered that this actually gave us a much smoother shot, as there was more resistance when pushing the camera. Another issue was lighting, because as we filmed it got darker, because the narrative sections take place over some time, I simply had to make sure we took shots in order, however we may need to brighten or darken some shots in post production so they match.
We had not planned any digipak shots for the shoot however we discovered that the reflection in Tom's guitar created a very interesting subject, we took several versions and we think we would like to put this as one of the digipak frames.
The next step is to review the footage at school to check for any gaps in our piece as well as finish taking the digipak photos.
