Thanks all, some really great pointers that we will need to incorporate into our next video. I really like the idea about writing our all of the quotes in Excel and organizing the story there.
Insofar as further edits for this video, we actually did not do the editing, only the production and shooting. We had a good friend of ours help with, and pretty much do, the editing for free, and he is off doing work of his own currently. I really don't want to bug him too much more, so this will be the final edit (at least for a bit).
Editing, is that a mind drain!
Insofar as having wides and close ups, this was a sticking point with our editor too. Next time we will certainly have two cameras rolling for interviews.
Slower camera movements are noted. I also learned why ND filters are so important. Some of the footage was shot with a 5D IV and I adjusted the shutter speed as I would for stills, sometimes as fast as 1/1200. This produces choppy video, which is good to know for the future.
Sound is what really had me concerned, especially for the interview. For this, we had a mic boomed overhead and another on camera, and lucked out with an outside location without issue for echoes or bad ambient. Shooting inside, with echoes and ambient noise, has us a bit more concerned for our next one.
This was Felicia's idea; next is mine on architects. Indoor shooting will be a must on that one.
Any pointers on recording sound indoors; should we just hire a sound guy?
