Analyzing my second shoot

These are some of my wide shots. I am very glad that for my second shoot I obtain a more varied number of shots. This is great because when it comes to editing my music video i will have multiple shot in which i can keep my audience more engaged due to it not being too repetitive my using the same angle multiple times. As well as this time around i got some hand held wide shots as opposed to only still camera being used in my first shoot, this also increased my variety.

Here is one example of a shot (bottom one) which i didn't notice a problem of even in my first shoot. This problem was that the projector is in shot. I only realized this at my second shoot because this time i checked a bit of the clip out before moving onto the next shot. This enabled me to solve my problem quickly, by simply moving the camera and zooming in more which in turn helped because it made the shot more focused on the band rater than there being a lot of space around them which could end up being a distraction.

These are some of my close up shots. I felt that the obvious main feature of the guitarist is the guitar itself (#2). Therefore close ups of this were my main focus for him. For the bassist, once again, the bass is the main feature(#1). And for the drummer i felt that the close up of the drum would be suitable and i thought that maybe the rhythm of the foot would be a nice close up (#3).

I felt that the cut-in shots for these three band members worked very well because it shows detail and it is quite interesting to look at:

#3

As this is the lead singer i tried to focus quite a bit on him. I felt that in my second shoot i managed to get a very good variety of shots ranging from medium shot, medium close up shot, close up shot and extreme close up shot. However during shooting, in each take, i always went between the band members and shot the close ups. I feel that with the lead singer i should have spent one whole take on him in order to be able to include him in the music video a lot more. I think this will be a drawback in my music video as there is no more time to do another shoot.
