2:00 pm - Discussion of the Shoot and Matthew Shooting

Now when you have a group like this it's a lot of pressure, it's, fun, it's a lot of pressure, the bigger jobs you get, the more pressure it is and you guys are doing amazing makes a huge difference when you have music and you see how they move and how they react differently, but you gotta keep the energy is you going as you shoot and read the energy? One said, you got to read how they feel, you make sure you're making the climb happy and that they're still all in great movement. So is one girl is actually very easy and then you get multiple models to be like, you know, ten models, guys and girls there's a lot more to control, so the better you get at working in the situation, you do anything which can handle this could do anything at all, but give yourself no stories within the story make different stories here, make a story here, make a focus here and shoot all around it because you want make sure once you turn your images into client, they have everything covered they have a tight s...

hot here they have three court because that's the focus that dress make sure you're covering all your bases to get that done first you got this job you want focus on getting the shot done right away when the first shots and then everything else is gravy, but make sure you first cover making that dress looked the best it can, then they can go crazy in the nuts. So all you guys did a great job. I loved all the different angles and direction it's by the best shoot I've seen I saw last year by saying they buy grow in this process. Oh, yes, come to you for a second and I like them to tell you how they feel being the models in the situation, working with all of you. So we have a mic for the ladies. Then after that, I want to shoot this looking all right, how do you feel each one of these guys shooting? Give me how you felt with them directing. I felt that, um, when you give me are any of us an emotion to express. It really helps a lot more than just things to dio or, um, that helps to direction of things to do with everything but also emotion, because someone said we are acting. And so it really helps to really play that part. We know exactly how we're supposed to feel it on the set. Yeah, definitely when you give a story line to go with it, and that makes it so much easier. Tio, kind of follow that role that you're trying to play so more background, you give this scene, I guess, the easier it is, those good? Not only did I feel like the story lines hope, but also switching it up because I felt like, sometimes maybe we weren't all embodying the story. And so when you switched it up, when you told that one a little still really hoped also got on, well, everyone had a different style of directing. You were very thorough community of lots of adjectives, a lot of directing your, um, also throwing adjectives and that that's great, I felt like is john taught todd sorry, little bag, I thought, a little big, like, I don't know what you're you have like, just like two words and so way have come already doing this before, but if I come on, maybe if it was a big commercial, because then a lot of pressure on me, if I'm getting paid a lot of money, I don't want the client to be upset, I didn't perform all right and the story line or the set up, or that I had to show the dress. So it's. Great for the model, because she also wants to get re booked. And I want to get rehired, and I want to shoot something like this again on with you. I definitely think you are very kind, so very compassionate, maybe a little more firm. That's it? Yeah, great, great, having a little bit. Agnes, I thought that you did a very nice job directing me I was never confused about what I should do and I feel very confident standing up here. Um I'm sorry what was your name coming coming, coming? I thought you also did a really good job there was only a couple of times like you were still behind the camera and he said, like, wave your hands and I thought, well, you something jazz on like, so I was a little bit confused there, but overall I felt very confident um, todd, I appreciated your style because it gave me a little bit more creativity, but I also felt very big and a little bit more shy because I didn't feel confident in what I want, what I knew, what you wanted but very fun to work with you as well. And for dave, I I like your style like you want to said, I think if you were just a little bit more firm but overall, very good, I thought it was really great to work with you guys just always remember tio to come up to the model because any time I feel like your cameras in hand, I felt like maybe I'm I'm being rushed and I don't have time to be able to ask you questions or to get further explanation overall great job, though so I think it's great for you guys to hear that from the models is you never get a chance on a job you never get this you'll never get this again we have to ask the models how they feel they're all feeling something and they'll tell their girlfriends that tend to make up artist the hairstyles until everybody but you so now you can hear from them how they feel don't be scared to give direction they want you to direct them tell them where to go what to be where to go and your client wants that too and the more you do it the more you will work don't be scared to give direction they can love your port for like oh I love it they book you one time like I love his work but or I love her work but on the shoot I felt like they were scared of the models and you lose that job in the future so don't be scared to direct give them firm direction on what you want which means you need to know before the shoot the direction you want to go which is why this board your visuals help you so much it helps you in setting the tone for what you want for the shoot what you want to pull out from the shoot you declines we told you that that's the dress if they want to feature so you you know that so now you've got to figure out how you and direct these models you go there casting you know who you have at this casting now at the job so now gets given direction so it's set you know you want heard through the sexy one she's the shy one she's the bossy one she's the bossy one given firm direction and makes it more fun for them and easier for you don't be scared to give direction don't be scared to give direction so now I'm gonna shoot this then why have you guys shoot again do I have time to do that?
