Back to the roots!
Yes!
Since my first video, which actually was a
strong piece, I’ve tried three different approaches on my videos.; none of them
were as strong as the first one.
Firstly, I went to Clapham Common and
filmed myself explaining some relevant historical facts that I found
interesting. I still believe in this
concept; however, the lack of a strong
script as well as my weak acting were crucial to the failure.
Believe me, this is the best part that I could find. This is just to show you guys an example (I haven't done any sort of editing on it)
After that, I decided to go back to my
original video format; I knew that on my
first video, both lighting and framing weren’t strong and thus, my aim was to
improve these elements. The final result
was a bad video with good lighting and
framing. What was the problem? The script.
I hanven't sync the audio from the mic that's why the audio of the video isn't great.
My third attempt, which has been uploaded
on the previous post, was also a failure. Besides the cluttered structure, the
episode had a weak script.
Therefore,
for this project from now on , I’m
gonna stick with my original format.; by doing this I intend to concentrate on
the script. I believe that on my previous attempts I had a script rich on
information but, somehow disorganised and this had a negative influence over my
acting.
Time to write!

ReplyDeleteGood to see you have experimented with structure but, yes, it is the script that is all important and this should be the starting point - the beginning of the creative journey. But even before that you need to figure out where you want to go... ie what it is you are trying to communicate to the audience. If you can get this right then the rest will fall into place. I trust you can sort the sound out as I was listening to your Pro Tools work earlier this week which was very good.
ReplyDeleteps... what was your role on the studio shoot? I can't find any posts here about that.
