Behind The Scenes On A Video Shoot
Wednesday, September 29th, 2010So…what goes on behind the scenes in the making of a corporate video? Here’s a sneak peak at a nighttime shoot for client Manhattan Associates. The location: the historic Fairlie-Poplar district of downtown Atlanta. Some logistics: we obtained permits for blocking off one half of a city block for the shoot … a small semi was rented for use as a portable green room/make-up/wardrobe, etc. … props included a delivery truck and boxes all labeled with a fictitious company’s product and logo. The camera: Canon 7D. An unusual challenge: the video had to be framed so as to work on both a 16:9 format TV monitor and a 60 ft., 4:1 format screen for a live event.
