What it means to be an Altar Server, filmed with the C100
This is a video I did to promote altar serving in the Catholic church. I filmed it by myself (I had an altar server help with conducting the interviews and some with lighting) at 4 different Masses (services), and did the interviews on two days after the Masses.
I listed the equipment used on the Vimeo page, but figured I'd list it here too. Canon 35mm f/1.4L, Canon 24-105 f/4L, Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Nikon 80-200 f/2.8 Glidecam HD4000 Sanken COS-11D Audio Technica AT-875 Shotgun Sony PCM-M10 w/Countryman B6 Rode Videomic Pro + Rycote Windjammer Manfrotto tripod and monopod Arri 650 Fresnal Lowel Tota 2x Lowel Pro-Lights 6-in-1 reflector kit 500 Watt Work Light Picture profile used was Wide DR. Some behind the scenes pictures from the interview set up can be seen here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...9629629&type=1 Comments and constructive criticism welcome. |

I thought this piece was really well put together.
The story telling by the servers & the cutaways were excellent, as was the occasional and judicious use of camera moves. Thanks for not overdoing that! Everything looked and sounded good. Well done! I thought it got a little long around the 3:15 to 3:30 mark or so. If it were me, I'd want to pull out about :40? At that point some of the interview content was getting repetitive for me, as were the cutaways. I also thought that "several seconds of new vo over a cutaway, then cut to interview" was overused as a technique. Consider staying in a cutaway sequence throughout some of these short interview audio snippets. I'm sure this project will be very meaningful to many, most of whom won't be concerned with my suggestions! |
