10 things that could ruin my music video

This is a list of 10 things that could ruin my video:

  1. Bad lighting 
  2. Bad weather 
  3. People/Actors not being available
  4. Poor lip sinking  
  5. Camera being out of focus 
  6. Battery dying half way through the day 
  7. Not enough footage and poor planning 
  8. Poor editing 
  9. Unclear Narrative
  10. Poor Cinematography

Ways to avoid these 10 things: 
  1. It changed the atmosphere of the whole music video so I have to make sure I use the correct lighting- lights and torches.
  2. I need to make sure that I plan properly and check the weather forecast 
  3. Make sure all the actors are available on the certain day and have a back up day planned. 
  4. Make sure the actor is at least miming to the lyrics 
  5. Double check the camera is in focus because you might lose shots if something is out of focus.
  6. Always carry a spare battery
  7. Always feel more than you need and plan everything in a lot of detail
  8. Make sure everything/ all the shots are placed in the right places to make the narrative clear.
  9. If your narrative is not clear it would lead to confusion so film a couple of shots to make sure the narrative comes across clearly. 
  10. Shoot everything twice just incase something is out of focus or the lighting is poor.
