Filming Day

I used my Canon 500D mainly with a 35mm-55mm lens and I had a Sony handicam on standby if needed. I used a tripod as a stabilizer in some scenes.

Even with the tripod I found some shots much too shaky

I also found some shots not framed perfectly the way I wanted, but with the multi tasking of co-ordinating the action I lost track.

Composing shots:

I tried to experiment with my shots so the film would not be so boring.

I always hoped to pull off a down the scope POV shot but that was not possible with my equipment.

I think some of my over the shoulder shots were the most successful
If a lot more of my shots were closer up the film would have felt much more dynamic.

Use of sound effects and music:

My Vegas project... those layers of sound...

A lot of my sound effects were ripped from video games and used.

Importing Images, Videos and Sound:

Thats a lot of gigabytes...

As I soon found out, working in after effects burned through memory, which was something I was not expecting.

I am quite proud of my workflow and management of folders, I never got lost and it was easy working in post.

So many After Effects Projects....

My work in After Effects:

Even though it was too many hours of work, it was totally work working on it, very proud of the end result
