This week I have done the first part of shooting, and I show them to Robin and get some very useful advice: I should slow it down. This is gonna to be a film reflecting a man’s complicated inside world and because of that there should be enough time for audience to understand what is happening. I can make more shots on him and focus on his body language and expression. Slow the whole thing down and give time to audience. This is the most important thing I should remember when shooting next scene on weekends.
Besides, the class this week focuses on the lighting stuff. I was absent because I had sore eyes and felt ill, but after watching the video my classmates shot in class, I have learnt a lot. The lighting is such a complicated technique which requires time and efforts to improve. I really wish I can practice the skill with those equipment used in class, but most of my scenes are outside and maybe I should get familiar to capture the natural light first before I start to focus on the inside lighting equipment. Hopefully I will practice them in next semester.
