BLOOPERS ARE A PART OF THE GAME - SOME VIDEO OUTTAKES

ARTICLE SUMMARY

The finished travel videos do not show every forgotten line or interrupted take. I share some of our outtakes from filming on the road, including the mistakes and distractions that meant starting again, and make room for a little humor alongside our effort to create good work.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The footage shows the reshoots and interruptions behind more polished videos.

  • The post presents mistakes during filming as something we can laugh about and learn from.

Professional videos may look smooth, but behind the scenes it can get a little messy. Whether it’s forgetting a line, a siren in the background or anything else that ruins the scene, there were plenty of times when we needed to reshoot our scenes.

We were on the road a lot this year... we mean, a lot. While traveling, we like to capture our travels, experiences and interactions along the way, wherever the road (and plane) may take us. Along the way, we have screwed up in trying to capture these moments. We’re not perfect, and that’s ok. To justify this, we tell ourselves it’s better to mess up a video than a client’s order. So have some fun at our expense checking out our outtakes videos.

We are not perfect, but that doesn’t stop us from reaching for the highest quality!
