Construction Post 3: Reflections on our Main Shoot Session

Our main shoot session was extremely successful, and following our less successful test shoot we came out of it feeling positive as a group. We worked much better as a team during the day and the new location made shooting a lot more successful. We were able to finish all of our shoot in a good time frame and without any major problems. Our actor was also extremely good and helped to make shooting quick and make our shots successful and come out the way we had imagined them during planning.

When reviewing our footage after our main shoot we found little problems with our shots, except a few minor continuity issues such as our actor wearing shoes in one shot and not in the next. We showed our footage to our teachers who helped us spot some of the continuity errors, and we also showed our shots to members of our target audience who all gave positive feedback about the shots so far. However these were all issues that we were able to easily resolve in our back up shoot the following week.
