Lessons Learned

In our project, we have a lot of interesting parts. The most exciting part is not only getting to work and use a camera, but to actually participate in editing the video. We all got to at least edit a part, some of us more than others.

Our teams roadblocks sometimes would be the schedule. One of us would try and check out a camera when all the others are busy or just simply don't want to go with the one checking out the camera. Also, if our interviewee says that one day an on-camera interview would be fine, but on the day of the interview, our interviewee might say, " Oh I'm sorry, I can't make it for your guys' interview".

A very important part of the project is to make sure that the camera is actually rolling, making sure that it level, making sure there's good audio and that the mic is hidden as much as possible, and that the camera is focused as possible. A tip to people with interviewee's with collared shirt, those shirt are great for mic clips, if interviewee has a normal T-shirt, than ask the interviewee to clip the mic under their shirt.
