Ever recorded something you thought was a good recording and then when you got into post, realize how much trouble you are in, because it wasn't actually recorded properly.

i swear, there's a bug going around... i did it for the first time last month, and then my second cameraguy did it on a shoot we did last week....

we need to run some blood tests..
 
MY camera guy, was suppose to be my main shot and the back up for the mistakes that I made and he did not press record for a period of time.
 
I got an eye exam this year. It's not bad but I'm not even allowed to drive, I'm so near sighted. If I had taken that exam before shooting the film, focusing would have been a lot easier on f/1.2
 
Yeah, thankfully mostly to stop the recording, so I just get a lot of me standing in front of the camera. :embarasse

But then there's the double-clutch, where you think you've stopped, but you haven't, and you don't notice it. So when you hit the red button to start, you've stopped, and you're one cycle off. Done that before.

Or, a 45-minute ISDN VO session, using house master TC so the numbers were already rolling but the DAT never started (yes, DAT... this was years ago). Fortunately, the backup DAT (non-TC) was rolling, which saved my duff...
