Filming



The last few days, the weather has been seemingly perfect for filming. However, I have had 4 hour sessions since friday and have managed to gather almost no useful footage. The skies have either been densely overcast and gray, or crystal clear blue sky. Both states have not had the desired effet. The clear skies, although nice and pure in tone, mean the camera picks up minimal information and the video becomes dull and lifeless. The desired result was big rolling clouds across a bright blue back drop. I have ended up trying to edit together 4 hours of blue.
So the video above is the best shots of blue sky, with high whispy clouds. But this is as good as it gets.
Therefore, i plan to find some stock footage off the net.
I have looked before and it seems as if i will have to buy some footage to be able to find film of a high enough quality. Ideally HD as noise and interference will be added in post, so the purer the image the better.
