I realize now my point didn't come across in my text. I wanted to ask if any producer would be interested in trying out some new ways of filming wetlook and if there are any ideas of what those might be. I mean things like multiple cameras and video streams or VR, but since I have very little expertise in this field, I cannot advice better.
What we typically have now is one camera, either on a tripod or held by a cameraperson. Nothing fundamentally wrong with this, but it leaves me sometimes thinking "I wish I could see this better".. |
In reply to Message (81874) Question about video
By Tony - Thu 02/07/20 09:16:49 GMT I've been a customer of various wetlook producers for some time and gathered a collection of videos from various sites. In fact so many, that I realized I need to organize it somehow to make any use of it. I started to put videos into folders, rating them by how much I like a certain video. This got me thinking the following.
Why did more than half of the videos go to the "not so great" folder? Not because of the models or clothing - the models are almost always great and the clothing at least "good enough". In most cases, the reason is some technical issue about the video. Low resolutions and blocky videos have mostly disappeared, but even in the new videos the settings of the camera sometimes don't seem to match the lighting, so the scene is dark. More often, I find myself disagreeing with the zooming decisions of the cameraperson or unhappy about shaking picture or the viewing angles. I feel that I cannot see what I would like to see in the video.
Filming wetlook is obviously difficult. I'm no video expert so I cannot say how to do this "right", if there even is such a thing. I don't intend this as a rant either but hope that it could be a discussion opener. For me, the ultimate experience would be if I could select the zoom and the viewing angle myself when looking at the video. I realize this is not easy and might involve significant cost - a VR camera perhaps, but I'm not really interested in 360 degree view but rather in alternative viewing angles and zooms, so some kind of multicam setup could do. The question is, do producers see this as something that could possibly be done in the future?
