During the original planned time for our interview, quite a number of problems arose, as stated in the previous entry. First, our equipment wasn't ready in the room we had planned. Second, Benson, our cameraman, was absent. Third, Pak Mark was attending a meeting. This eventually caused us to have to reschedule the shoot from Monday November 1 to Wednesday November 3. However, in the end we were able to shoot on time and get the footage we needed.
Equipment
For equipment, were given the school's Sony camera which is able to record high definition footage, a tripod, 2 LED lights, as well as a boom mic. However, since we had no experience with it we just used the camera mic instead.
Setting Up
Setting up was fairly simple and straightforward. The setup we chose was very much identical to the one we used for our lighting workshop. We set up the sofa to be in front of the wall and used 2-point lighting, 1 key light and 1 fill light, with the camera placed in front of the sofa. The total amount of time to set up was around 20 minutes, and we finished setting up as soon as Pak Mark arrived.
Shooting
Shooting was also simple and straightforward. We only used 1 camera and angle, however we did also use some techniques including zooming in and out as well as panning. The shots we used were a two-shot, which doubled as a full shot, and close-ups. We also only ended up having 1 long clip rather than several shorter ones. The length of this footage was almost 12 minutes.
We also planned to do cutaways but had no time for it. We decided to get footage from our cameras. However, we ended up not shooting all the cutaways we had originally hoped for.
