The end of the year is coming up, and I'm filming interviews for the senior video. Let's dive in!
I met with Chad Rea, a local videographer in search of cameras. He had a few to lend, so I took a couple. His system used Sony cameras, attached to a "Shogun" tablet viewing device. The tablet held all the files that I filmed, so I didn't have to work with any SD cards. I could also preview the videos before uploading them. Over the course of a couple weeks, I filmed interviews with almost every member of my class. I asked about their experiences, beliefs, and future. I'm yet to edit it all together.
I ran into a couple issues throughout the process. First of all, I struggled with the cameras batteries. They needed excessive charging. Secondly, uploading the videos was very difficult. I had 298 GB's worth of files and not enough space on my mac. I troubleshooted with school computers to no avail. Mr. Mcmath reccommended I use an external drive, so my dad and I ripped the disk out of a computer to use externally. Worked like a charm!
