Shooting commercial, with a cold

Today we shot three scenes for the ViValores commercial "Who educates...". I had a cold and my nose and eyes kept running all day. Not the wisest but we had planned with so many actors and everybody could do it, so I didn't want to spoil it.

We shot in a pretty tight apartment. One challenge was the crane-panning shot, we actually constructed a kind of mini-steadicam but at the end we used a telephoto pan shot instead. The drawback was that we didn't have a good telephoto lens, only a Canon kit lens which we had to push until 400 ISO. But, the shot movement didn't look to bad.

Again we were working with a child actor, she is only about ten years old but did pretty well. I was both director and DP, which is not the best, because one is distracted from direction into all the lighting questions and you forget about things.
Anyway, we kept the schedule pretty well (2 hours per scene) and got our main shots, so I shouldn't complain.
