Editing

Obviously shooting is a never ending process, always with a need for further, more perfect material, U just can't stop it. There is however a limit, where U have to and think of the rest of the time, that should be spent by putting together the film and sound.
This is a long job, as we were choosing the scenes and all the effects, white ballance, special filters, speed etc. I realized that the most essential thing in all this is the concept of the structure, that should be determined preliminary to the process, so that editing could go easier and more smooth.
What we do is really like doing a large movie in small, to gain 1minute video, we need to invest 1-2hours into it. The rest is just additional effort and joy, which makes the whole worth be done and leaves the person feel well in the end.

Shooting

Last week, we have taken our time after the exhibition tour with Sára and went to shoot the first stuff, and basically the bulk of the material, we needed to the music video that we are doin now.
Our purpose was to find a place where many people could be found and also with a dancing atmosphere, so instead of a club we went to a dancing school;)
There we had everything we needed to create diversity and different motions for the film: children were excitedly dancing and perfroming for the camera in one room, in the other we had phantomen dancers to perform movements for us in synchron, a majorette performer, flamenco lession and the rehearsal of a dance-show.
Filming them was quite fun and the ease of shots varied from room to room, sy just loves to be filmed, some go crazy from the camera and some people just get confused and get blocked from the device... But one thing is sure we needed and did, shooting for edit! this is the next chapter of that adventorous afto in the dance school, see for details the music video;))
