The probability of getting the best shot

Getting the best shot is every body's ultimate dream. It boils down to to the fact that the shot should be in tandem with the overall concept and does not look fake or dull and isolated from the rest of the footage. It is not a question how but when the best moment appears. It is highly recommended that you be alert all the time and do not let the precious moments to slip away without being 'tagged.' This is when consistent exercise bears the fruit. As for me, shooting video should not be restricted to only one particular subject, eg: wedding. The broader your scope, the more experience you gain in terms of pre and post production process. Versatility is the order of the day as it transcends the mental barrier in which you comfortably entrenched yourself in all these years. Shooting videos for corporate functions or family day should give proper insight of the requirement needed as you are dealing with dynamic environment and intuition is crucial element in determing the next step as the surrounding might change all in sudden and forgetting to bring along extra light could ruin the entire footage and your reputation as well. It is best to say that being too preoccupied with single format production does have negative residual effects.
