But seriously, I would say I suck at lighting, camera movement, not bumping the camera, audio, pretty much everything in pre-production, dialogue shots and set building, although I am getting better at them...slowly...very slowly...

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I'm terrible at actually finishing anything, I tend to lose concentration and will-power. Also I'm a perfectionist, so I get frustrated much of the time. 

I have a hard time get smooth animation as well, if I do "tests" and just concentrate on one little movement I can get a pretty good shot. The only problem is that when that one little movement/shot is part of a whole project, I feel loaded down. I suppose it's just my mindset that is the death of my films.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I have always been terrible at ending videos; my endings are usually thought up on the spot and incredibly sudden. The abruptness has made for a funny ending once or twice, but usually they don't feel satisfying. 

I've also only ever built quite basic sets which is something I hope to improve on in future videos. Hopefully I don't become too addicted to Bricklink!]]></content>

I agree with you :)

Also definitely audio. I've recently discovered that all this time, I should have been using Premiere Pro instead of After Effects for this. Sooooooo much easier.

Coming up with ideas. Once I have one, I can write reasonably well, but I struggle to get the idea. Or at least the good ones.

Lighting. Although most of that is a budget issue. I have grand plans to greatly improve my lighting. Part of this includes using variable lighting instead of a standard desk lamp. Hopefully much more control over light flicker which I have determined isn't the fault of my full manual camera.

Camera movement. ANZAC was ambitious. I'm hoping to fix this tenfold when I build my automated motion control rig.]]></content>
