Look Who's Listening

I hooked up with the Drama Team at Crossroads this week to shoot a drama on video. We purchased it from Willowcreek. Look Who's Listening was written by Donna Lagerquist. The shoot took about 3 hours. I should have tried harder to find some volunteers to help. I ended up directing the video (with input from each drama team member), running a single camera using several angles, and monitoring sound. The most difficult task was making sure each angle I shot from had continuity. I used a lapel mic for the audio since I didn't have anyone to run a boom. As you watch the video, see if you can tell where I hid the mic. The audio came out pretty well considering I had to move the mic to each actor as they did their lines. The one actor I didn't use the mic on is Charlie, who plays the boss. I ended having him come in so I could re-record his lines and dubbed them in. Total time for shoot: 3 hours shooting, 6 hours editing.
