Hey Guys, and Welcome back to my blog.
Today i am going to talk about how i helped out at a local play and music show in my local town in Ireland. From College, i got a once and a life time opportunity to go and help with the filming of our local play and musical also run by the college. The aim of the show was to help promote a song the college has wrote. It was a clever idea indeed. The first half of the show consisted of music covers but the music students from college, and the second part was a drama that was preformed by creative students from college also. It was a great show i must say. I had a complete blast.
So, I and three other class friends went to the show to help out a local film production company, with the camera work. I was lucky enough to have been given the chance to be behind a camera, getting shots while live and zooming in and out. I really enjoyed what I was doing. I found this experience great. I was also shown how you talk to the camera men or women, and how to navigate when the camera is live or not. I felt like I was in my element. I always had a found of Film and tv production. As I love photography, I didn't see the reason to why I wouldn't like a hand on projects like this. It really opened my eye's and made me think about what career I really want.
Throughout the night, i had a great time. I was tired a lot faster than I thought. I never knew being behind a camera for two hours filming would take so much energy out of me. I was so happy that I went and did this one in a life time thing, as I was unsure if I would ever get the same chance again. I was happy I choose to go and see how sets are also done. I think by doing this experience, I enjoy working with Cameras and on sets. I think i fitted in perfectly.
The below are images that i took on the night. As you can see i was working with very high tech Cameras. I was very nervous and scared when using them encase i broke one. Once i got the hand of it, i got more comfortable and let my skills and interest of camera work shine. I did enjoy this wonderful experience.

Film production is an exciting process to be part of! Using tools like ViVeTool can really help streamline the workflow and improve efficiency on set.
