BLOG QUESTION ADV: HIGH TEA REFLECTION

Live shoots can be a whole different animal in video production. They present their own unique challenges. Reflect on your High Tea shoot yesterday. How did the shoot go? What were some challenges? How did you overcome them? What would you keep in mind for your next live shoot?

I feel like the High Tea shoot went pretty well. Leading up to the day, it was a bit stressful trying to plan and coordinate what to shoot because we didn't know the entire schedule until the actual day of the event. Despite this, we were able to adjust our plans as we received new information. Some challenges I encountered when filming the fashion class' involvement in the event was that there wasn't much preparation to film (in comparison to culinary's), so we had to really make sure we got plenty footage of their students on the day of the event. Next time we shoot an event, I want to make sure I acquire a clear schedule and start pre-production much earlier, so we are all on the same page on the event day.
