Hey everyone, I’m filming my first short film soon. Just looking for any advice from people who’ve been through it before. If you’ve made a short and have tips, let’s connect and chat!
What you will screw up the most is the sound. The viewer needs to be able to clearly understand the characters. That's more important than even the image. Get the mic close to the actors' mouths, and have them speak loud and clear enough.
Delegation of power is your savior.
Use a microphone that you can get close to your actors. Sound really is the
thing you will screw up most.
