FILMING AND EDITING- what is challenging? Where are your skills growing the most?

From my first filming experience the most challenging thing is not to rely on the weather to be changed. Quick decision making is vital to decide what else we can film instead of filming a scene which is outside so that is one of the most important skills which can be challenging.
Another challenging factor is to have lack of variety of shots. After my first filming when I uploaded my shots, along with bad quality I also lacked the variety of differnt shots so keeping that in mind is very important. Finally, the artist has to learn the lyrics of the song and the sound of the song when filming should be loud in order for the editing to become easy which can be challenging for the artist.

I began to grow my skills by learning the importance of various shots and how to take them due to the practice which we had done before on 'Hit Me Baby'. That helped me in many ways and gave me the confidence when I had to do my real filming.


I also began to learn more about 'Final Cut Express' and how it's used for music videos. The mount of effort I put due to the fast and short cuts between various shots. Also I learnt how to match the original songs through lipsync tutorial which we had recently therefore all this helped me largely on various skills and now if I get a chance to make another music video then I would be very happy, more prepared and more confident to do it.
