Documentary Unit -Workshop With DOP Peter LLoyd-Williams

So, we had a workshop with a DOP, which was really helpful towards the documentary unit, as I am really hands-on learner. The scenario is to make an interview with the resoruces around and with a five minute time minute, but make sure that we can get adequate coverage. So our group went with the three point lighting, and pulled one of the studio black curtains so that it can create a nice backdrop. we also hooked up a clip mic to the interviewee so we can get pure sound, and also a rode mic on top of the camera for atmos. The camera was place a little further away so we can achieve some nice depth of field. The three required shots were:

Shot of interviewee.

Interviewer noddies.

Wider shot of interviewee with shoulder in shot.

Here's a few snaps of the shoot, plus the settings on the camera

We were then set a task to film a short interview in 30 minutes in the exterior of the studios, making sure we used the same sort of coverage and any extra shorts that would cut, this is the final product, I found the overall day very useful to me about coverage as I was unsure going into it.
