#6 Superhydrophobics

Superhydrophobics is by far one of the most incredible technologies I have ever seen and was very fascinating to work on.  This was a collaboration piece between a few of us working here at the lab in an attempt to generate interest in marketing this technology.  I had the opportunity to participate in the preproduction of this project which is not typical and I got to shoot and edit the piece.  This was a team effort and everyone involved deserves the highest amount of praise for their work.  The most exciting part is that this video was picked up and shown on several national scientific websites.

There were some complications with this video; we had bad audio issues that developed while interviewing one of our scientists that took a large effort to clean up as much as possible.  We also made the mistake of going into this project without a script.  Most of the time for this kind of piece you will interview your subjects and then create a script from that and determine what B-Roll you need to shoot to fill in; but in this case we had to shoot many of our product shots first then do our interviews which caused us to have to go back and shoot more and left us with large amounts of unused footage.  All in all this was one of the most rewarding projects I have worked on.
