Analysis of First shoot, 11th of November 2008

Overall our first shoot went reletively well, however we didn't realise how long it would take and therefore didn't allow ourselves enough time to film, as we all had to get buses home and such like. We also realised that we should have got our actor to get ready (straighten her hair and put on makeup) before the shoot, as this wasted up to an hour of our time. The battery ran out before we had done a sufficient amount of filming, and at this stage we did not realise that we were able to plug the camera in to the mains and carry on. So we ended our first shoot after the battery ran out. The first shoot was a good insight to us, as it showed us how long it it actually takes to set up, and film each shot. Next time we will bring a spare battery, and organise for the actress to arrive an hour earlier to prepare herself for the shoot.
