Hi readers! Imagine, you were producing a movie and they gave you a unlimited budget. How would you spend it? In this blog, I'll be discussing how I would film my movie differently if I had a major movie production budget.
Firstly, I would hire more people to work on our team. Don't get me wrong, my group is great, but sometimes it's better to have a plethora of heads working towards an idea. For example, our movie possibly could've better in plotline if we had a mix of people working to give a unique way of portraying our base ideas. I also would hire people to work on lighting and sound. We didn't have too many issues in that department, but us constantly losing daylight made filming longer then it needed to be. If I could hire people and buy technology that would replicate the lighting we were going for even at night filming would've been done much soon.
Secondly, I would upgrade the technology used to produce the film. The camera we used, a , did a good job for what we had, but there are many shots where the camera lost focus resulting in us having to ditch good shots in editing because the were clear. We also struggled with the camera dying often so I would buy extra batteries.
Lastly, I would most likely hire actors. Using someone who never had experience acting in front of a camera resulted in us spending a lot of time directing the actor on simple things. For example, we had to refilm a shot of her putting on lip gloss (even after showing her a reference video) about 6 times because each time didn't look natural, or attractive, or happy. So I would hire a experienced actor that knows how to look natural when in front of a camera. Also, using someone from our group as a actor took away from the film crew as he was one of our main directors so I would hire an actor to play his role.
Thank you for reading!
