I was asked by a pro. documentary maker (who I met on the plane flying in to London) to get some B role for a G&R concert he was filming (with his spare video camera).
I was given the camera and sent in to the mosh pit to film from that perspective. After the show I gave the camera back to him. He said, "where's the footage?"
I had been "filming" looking through the view finder, but I had forgotten to press record.
Gutted.

- nyanpasu64 2y ago"B [roll] for a G&R concert" sounds like a joke about RGB in little endian.
- spuz 2y agoIf it makes you feel better, I have occasionally handed friends my DSLR and asked them to record something for me. You can do this either by pressing the red record button or full press the shutter button. Well my friend spent 15 minutes only half-pressing the shutter button and recording nothing. Now I know to make sure to tell people how to start and stop the recording and how to check if it is actually rolling or not. I consider that my humbling learning moment.
