This was my first "professional look" video I did for Gallaudet's tv show, "What's Up, Gallaudet". It is a simple 30 seconds (almost!) TV spot for Recreation Center. The reason why I did this for Recreation Center is for none. That place just popped in my head when I first think of which place I should do a TV spot for. There was a pre-production and lot of storyboards. For the dolly shots, I used the tripod with wheels and marked tape on the floor, so I could follow the line with wheels. It was no fancy dolly but it worked fine anyway. One shot I am really proud of is the last shot where bowling ball hits the pins and roll into the camera. I did this by placing the pins on the center of alleyway. I shot it with camera on the ground as actor gently roll the ball to the pins. With the close-up, it looked as if the bowling ball was rolling fast and hit the pins hard. The trick worked really well.
