    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    Thanks for your feedback. Really valuable for me to get someone else’s view. And yea, that particular looking off cam shot with no space in direction she’s looking. WTF. There are artistic times this can be implemented but defo not in this production. Stands out like a sore thumb!

    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    Ok, just for closure - I'd like to share 2 videos with you. The first one is a production of mine, which demonstrates how this 'listening in' / i.e. not directly addressing the viewer works. (if you think not, feel free to give me some constructive criticism). We ended up popping the questions...

    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    I think the active or passive dialogue is a really interesting point here. Maybe thats where I'm stumbling. I certainly am pushing for a passive dialogue. In my head, it seems to be more comfortable when the viewer is listening in (and the talent is not directly addressing the viewer). Great...

    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    I'm suggesting 'subconsciously' in terms of the viewer (without effort) understands the talent is speaking to a person physically in front of them in the room. The message hopefully is still strong and delivered with intent to that person. I rarely do include the side of the interviewers head...

    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    First of all, we never include the interviewers questions/voice in the final piece. And if we did, the question would be along the lines of... "For people out there looking to buy a property, what should they consider?" Maybe this massive separation I'm referring to is because I know that the...

    directing Trying to advise - That's NOT the way to do it!

    Yes, I hear ya both. The looking off camera concept and interacting with another person, is really to allow the talent to be more relaxed, and make it more of a conversation. The talent I film, are not used to being on camera. They are specialists in an industry (they're lawyers) but terrible at...

    Hi All. I work as an in-house videographer in a corporate environment. Recently, I've been trying to inform those around me who write up the script for the partners/managers who are on screen, that something is not right, and I'd love to hear other opinions on this matter, as essentially support...

    misc Diopic lens accessory

    I've never heard of these types of lens/adaptors. $30 sounds like an absolute steal! I've always loved super closeup video work. Good luck putting them to use!

    A Fresh Creativity!

    Hi Neal. Well, it's a small world as you are the 2nd post I've read on IT (ever! As I've just joined myself) and I live pretty close to you down the road in South Nutfield (Surrey). Be interesting to have a chat a bit more, as I'm also looking to meet people and expand my connections with people...

    A one man creative in the corporate world!

    That was a really great ad! Never seen it before, and it kept me interested right to the end. Great idea though. Try making something out of work for potential commercial content. Thanks.

    A one man creative in the corporate world!

    Hi all, great to join this community. Let me try my best to keep my intro short and sweet, and why I wanted to join. So as the title suggests, I'm reluctant to say, that my permanent job is to film and photograph people in my own firm, to promote the services we offer. I'm actually within the...
