Issues and Solutions with my Final Video

Resolution) One of the biggest issues during this was the absence of my GoPro, due to its issues. For the most part, large cinematic views/changing resolutions would be pretty difficult with an iPhone, but I made do with it.

Quality) In addition to the resolution, the quality of the videos also suffered. iPhones are generally pretty good at taking still pictures and videos, but with scenes with high movement, closeups, poorer lighting, or far-away zoomed scenes, the quality can be terrible. To counteract this, there are some online services as well as built-in Premiere Pro effects that can make the appearance of low-quality video less obvious. This was only my last resort though since the GoPro dying was not expected. 

Processing Power) Many editing software and software that uses effects or uses high quality or large file-sized clips rely heavily on the processing power of your PC. No workaround for this without getting creative, so I split my project into 4 parts of thirty seconds as different projects, and then exported the files and used the final footage of each clip into one last project. Carefully monitoring and ensuring each effect and the transition is used properly will ensure that I will also not have to wait as long per effect added.

Single Producer) Being produced only by myself, having scenes with multiple characters in the frame, or having my entire body in the frame (or not holding it) is very hard, and it is impossible for me to have dynamic camera movement with myself in the shot. For the other shots though, the use of a tripod is alright. 

The other issue is the plot. Having a singular character will generally not have an action-packed plot or action. So, I shifted away from this and instead did one focusing more on mise-en-scene and the scenery instead.
