What I learnt from Lenny…
Initially I thought the Lenny was a bit of a drag, just another bit of assessment. However, after the exercise, I see how vitally important it was.
My role was pre and post production as I unfortunately couldn’t make the shooting day. However I found the most valuable part of the exercise was watching the shots afterward, from an outside perspective and realise all the things that needed to be considered.
It was also incredibly helpful watching other groups Lenny work partly out of interest, as to how exactly they shot it, but seeing their errors too. It made me aware of a lot of other things I wouldn’t have been aware of whilst shooting and now will take great care with on our shoot. These include; white balance, lighting, consistency in camera work and external interferences.
