OH- Guitar filming

I have found that the video "Dream Catch Me - Newton Faulkner" has used many good shots of him playing the guitar, from panning down the neck, to pull back focus on different parts of the guitar being played, such as strumming and fingering the notes.

What did i find?
I have found that some videos in the past have had bad shots of the guitar being played, and when its played in this genre its about talent, not just looks and a pseudo individualised style of music and an artist that has just had money thrown at him/her. however I believe syncing the guitar perfectly and playing the tune right with the correct shot angles and size will be very effective in making our video look more realistic.

Examples of this?
for example in a video that i had already analysed "newton Faulkner-Dream catch me" I noticed that the guitar shots were very effective when he would strum the guitar and play the notes. Looking down the neck seeing the right hand strumming in focus but the fingers playing the chords out of focus I think could be very effective.

This angle of the guitar strumming as a CU I think is also effective, showing skill, yet if for example there's a bit of the song I cant play properly, the strumming may be a "filler" to some extent encase the situation arises that I cant play a particular bit.

How is the guitar playing different to other genres?
This genre of music has quite a style of playing the guitar to other genres, the guitar is normally held higher, and played often with fingers by finger picking, however with other genres such as metal, the guitar is held far lower and is often but in the background and is made to look darker, where as in the genre of soft rock, its one of the main features and is pronounced in quite a bright light and is very obvious in the video.


What did i learn?
This research has shown me how to play the guitar with keeping with the genre characteristics of the track, this has shown me also that i will most likely need to learn how to play the guitar to a high standard, to not make it look amateur, and to take lots of shots of CU's of the guitar so we can edit them and get rid of the pnes that arent played in time properly.
