This video was both a blast and a challenge. The setting was wide open, making for some nice pan shots. But also making the acoustics kinda tricky. Wishing I had brought the lav mic for better audio. Will need to work on mixing audio levels in post for next time too.

This might be one of my most favorite assignment ever and a definite labor of love. This was pitched to us a while back, when we brought the Animal Care League on as bloggers. As a rescue pet owner, I was surprised to find that fostering is one of the most important aspects of a shelter’s support system. You can read the whole story here. The set up was a little tricky, but I’m pleased with how the round table situation worked out. It was also really nice having the two pups running around for added b-roll if not a little bit of a distraction. Seriously, how do people who work with dogs all day get anything done?

Kids these days. Building robots and whatnot. Crazy. This was fun both to get to hang out with kids who clearly enjoy learning and the teachers who enjoy teaching and to watch the robots. Audio wasn’t as bad as I was anticipating. Though the mic died in the middle. Very glad to have an extra at that point and to keep double checking.
