Some conclusion during making the film

During these days of making the short film with Lee, I found that the ability of cooperating with teammates is very important. We work together and very happy about that, so finished everything within our expects. We spent 3 whole days to shoot and spent also 3 or 4 days to make the post-production, after that we discussed together and made the critical thinking of it. Some positive things were found by us that we finished everything within our expectations. But there were also some negative things happened during making the film. We used two cameras as Sony EX-1 and Canon 5D Mark III, some problems were found as the colour of these two cameras are totally different. The same aperture, shutter and colour temperature are adjusted on two cameras, but the export are totally exceeded our expectations. The colour are more brighter and the wideness are better in Canon 5D Mark III, but in Sony EX-1, the pictures are a bit darker than 5D 3. So during the post-production, I paid more attention and made great efforts on adjusting the colour in Premiere Pro CC with the plug-in named Colorista II. I adjusted colours of the shots from 5D Mark 3 to meet the colour of the shots from EX-1, because the EX-1 was the main camera during the shooting. It spent me a great deal of time. So I will pay more attention to the colour systems of the cameras I will use next time. If dual cameras were used, the cameras with similar colour systems should be chosen before shooting.
