Default RE: what to do

I had a similar situation the other day. You 2 need to communicate and locateHIS shooting lanes andYOUR filming lanes when you first get set up. Next time, when you see the deer coming in, try to anticipate that hemight notget a shot on the left (for example) side of the tree and move the camera to the other side before they get so close. He of course must then have the patience to wait until the deer pass into the camera's view before taking the shot. Then again, it depends on what goals you have in mind for that hunt. Sometimes shooting the deer is more important then getting it on film, other times you won't take the shot UNLESS it's on film. If putting a deer on the ground is more important, then film what you can. If you're unable to get the shot on film, get as much as you can and get on the deer as soon as the hunter shoots. Then do your post shot interview and everything else. You can still do a good job of capturing the essence of the hunt - even without the impact shot. GOOD LUCK!
