The Filming Fiasco

     After looking at the footage from both our days of filming, I have found a major problem.  It seems as if everything we have filmed has been corrupted and is unusable.  This is very upsetting, especially since we have found out so late in the process. What we will have to do is re film this weekend the best we can.

     I asked my television production friends what could have happened in case I make the same mistake again.  After a very educational conversation, we came to a specific reason to why this happened to my footage.  The very professional camera that I used to film captured in 60 frames per second, a very large amount of frames.  The SD card I used for the project was a 4 speed so it was not fast enough to record the footage correctly.  For the next time I film, I will have to buy a 10 speed SD card or film in 30 fps.  

     Although this is a major issue, it is very fixable.  The only other issues I can foresee is getting people to come and help last minute and on a Sunday.  I am trying to keep a positive outlook in that I can redo some shots or try to act a little better.  Although it is hard when I think of how little time I have left, I will just have to wait and plan the best I can.
