Filming Equipment

To produce my introduction, it is planned for little equipment to be used. Apart from a camera, tripod and microphone, there should be no need for anything else, an unforeseen benefit of the style we are filming in.

The camera we will be using is a Nikon D3200 DSLRs provided by school, this allows for us to record high quality, widescreen video and is easy to set up, use and export footage to computers.

For stabilisation, a tripod will be used, while this means that we may not have as much stability in the handheld shots, this is not an issue as the style I'm filming doesn't have many handheld shots. A steady cam is available in case stabilisation is needed for the handheld shots but is not expected to be needed.

For audio, I will use an external microphone to record sound independent of the camera. While this means that the sound and video will have to be synced in editing it allows me to have more control over the audio as well as giving the audio much better quality.
