Today's behind the scenes filming was very much exactly teh same as last time. The three of us on the behind the scenes crew took the same jobs as before and the footage, including the sound quality (as monitored by myself) were of a high standard now that we finally figured out the right settings for the camera and microphone.
The difference came in the form of the content that was filmed. Another branch of the UCA in Rochester which focuses in design for sets in theatre in film had come in to build the set for our live show. This took several hours but we were able to get quite a lot of footage of the set being put together. I feel that we captured the team spirit that was being shown throughout the set building as everyone involved was hard at work and appeared to work well and communicate very well with each other. We even managed to get some interviews with some of them as well.
After this, we filmed the first set of rehearsals, now complete with the built set. This run-through did appear very rough as some mistakes were made through communications with the gallery and the people on the main studio floor as well as some technical problems with the equipment. We'd decided that we should look through the footage while the next rehearsal took place and, after speaking to some of the crew, the later rehearsals were a lot better than previously.
Overall, I am very happy with the footage. The lighting was much better this time around and the sound quality was clear with little background noise as usual. There also appeared to be much less footage consisting of the crew messing around, indicating a much more focused mind as the day of the live filming draws nearer.
