The one thing that stays the same in the production business is that every day is different. Today, we were lucky enough to be in the studio with Pamela Cohn, shooting a series of 60 (yes, 60!) short videos of various exercises for a new health website to be launched shortly.
You'd think that Pamela would be exhausted after such a day, but believe it or not, she had not one but two classes to teach at her 'day job' directly after the 6 hour shoot today. I wish I was in that kind of shape.
This was a fairly standard 2-camera shoot, although one camera was mounted on a dolly to add some motion to the video. Pamela ended up doing two to three times the recommended number of reps for each exercise as we captured wide, close, and dolly shots. It would have left me in tears! :-)
The best part of it all was the wonderful attitudes of everyone involved, from Pamela and Scott (our camera operator and producer) to our patient clients, and the infectious high spirits of our make-up and hair artist, Meleah.
All in all, a great shoot, and a great bunch of people. We're looking forward to shooting more with these guys as their website ramps up. We'll be sure to keep you posted when it goes live.
