Professional Practice: Practice Shoot

The idea of the practice shoot was to see exactly what the teams chemistry was like, as well as identify how long it would take to set up and pack away after each individual shoot based around the PR YouTube videos that are set to be in development by July. This is a sub section of GMTD which allows us to gain notoriety through fashion shows/events where we can present our team & presenter for our channel, Interviewing and broadcasting our content across YouTube is our aim & being able to fluctuate as much content as possible is our goal for the first 3 month. So this practice shoot allows us to understand exactly what is possible when it comes to turnaround time of the footage we need to capture as and when we allocate it to our working schedule in the company.

Going forward we took note of the improvements needed as well as understanding the power of what an eye catching back set can do to add some life & vibrancy to the background. as you can see in the photo above the background is extremely dull, i have already took to searching for set dressing for when we have our location we will be creating most of our YouTube videos from. The shoot itself went very well & both Araf and Mohammad gelled with each and every one of the team. We had a small De - brief after the shoot to let the team get to know the both of them & alllow them to answer any questions they had.

The turnaround time of shooting & editing the footage was in the space of 48 hrs which was fantastic, This gave Araf a good idea of what is achievable for the future & how we can discuss turnaround times for content in the future. We have several shoots in the pipework but first i am now in need of finding someone with presenting experience willing to be our PR representative, so that is my next task going forward.
