Here are some things I’ve been inspired by lately. Whether creatively, spiritually, etc. – in some way or another these things have pushed me. Enjoy.

Video Checklist

I recently went to get the last bit of footage necessary to complete a short video I’m working on, however while using new equipment (and not thinking properly), made a very newbie mistake: I did not record any audio. When I returned to capture my footage and finish up my own personal project, I got to sit in front of my computer in disbelief and anger. So, as they say happens, I have learned from my mistakes and have put together a checklist that I am willing to share to the Internet (that’d be you). Part of the reason I blog, is so that I can express my learning process, which then allows me to look back on my progress (that rhymed and everything!).

Here is the list that I will walk through from now on when I go to shoot footage:

1) Is the tape in the camera?
2) Have you properly hooked up the audio inputs and tested their functionality?
3) Have you compensated for lighting changes?
4) Have you applied the proper filters?
5) Have you properly focused the shot?
6) Have you focused the shot?
7) Did you actually record something?
8) Do you have everything?

It’s not a very detailed list, however it does help me out with some basic things that anyone can overlook (even me, a guy who has been doing video for much longer than I’d like to admit after making the mistake I did).
