Problems when shooting a high-quality blog on a smartphone


Hello everyone

I decided to shoot the unboxing nicely.

I usually put my phone on the table, turned on the selfie camera, pressed record and spoke. THAT'S IT!

And here, I think, we need to do it beautifully. And so I will describe what difficulties arose and how much time it took to solve and prepare them. Without taking into account the shooting.

1 problem - cleaning.(40 min)

I decided to make a kitchen background, not a refrigerator background. I had to do a general cleaning for 40 minutes so that everything was perfectly clean.

2 the problem is the location of the camera. (10 minutes)

It is necessary that the background is beautiful and nothing superfluous gets in. For 10 minutes I walked back and forth and looked at how I could build a frame. In the end, I found a place.

3 the problem is to install the phone.(15 minutes)

There is nothing to attach the smartphone to. I had to get dressed and go for a tripod. Brought it, put it on.

4 the problem is furniture. (5 minutes)

To shoot on these backgrounds, I need to take out all the chairs and move the table in the kitchen!

5 the problem is that I can be clearly seen and there is a beautiful light. (30 minutes)

I climbed to get the light.

I put the software 90x90 cm . at the table to highlight yourself.

I put an RGB panel on the back and turned on the cold blue light, directed it to the kitchen, which is behind me in the frame.

Well, the third device with a Fresnel lens and curtains was put on the back of the contour to give me volume.

6 the problem is sound. I need to be clearly heard. (10 minutes)

I took out the radio bullets. And I tried to make it so that it doesn't fall off the tripod where the phone is. The receiver was slipping. I had to press it with tape.

7 the problem is that I'm already disheveled and tired, but I need to look normal. (20 minutes)

I went to wash my hair, put my hair, found a T-shirt of a complementary color to the background. I took out an ironing board, brought an iron and ironed it.

8 the problem is shooting the details of the products. (20 minutes)

I went and got a 3D rotary table for subject shooting.

I picked up the color of the substrate that matches the product. I took out the accumulators, thank God, they were charged😂

Installed everything on the table. And to shoot the subject, it was necessary to rearrange both the tripod and the light.

A total of 2 hours and 30 minutes to prepare for the shooting.

And it took 2.5 hours to shoot three products.

As a result, I was busy from 23:00 to 4:00

I took three items out of five and went to bed. Leaving the kitchen and the room from where he got everything in a complete mess.

It will take an hour to clean and pack all the appliances, wiring and removal of the tripod and racks.

As a result, 6 hours of work for three short unboxing.

It still takes time to mount them. The editing of the first video took 40 minutes. So, the installation of three videos takes about 2 hours

A total of 8 hour working day for three products.

Conclusion. I consider the trial successful in terms of the result. The picture turned out good.

But from the point of view of blogging, this is not viable. And we need to optimize everything.

Do you have any experience shooting your blog, share it in the comments.

Thank you for reading to the end!
