TECH STUFF

Hello!! with less than a week until filming I need to figure out what equipment I want to use for my opening. This blog post will not be long because I already have an idea of what I want to use for my opening I just need to explain it.

So, my dad owns a Sony camera. Here it is:

This camera is relatively old but I LOVE it. I always use it to take pictures of me and my friends and videos of concerts and just everything. This camera is mainly for taking pictures but you can film on it. I was thinking of using this camera because the quality is really good. But, my friend has a cannon camera that IS for filming so instead I am thinking of using hers. I will still have mine as a backup in case something happens and I can't use it.


As for audio, for the scenes that have dialogue, I am going to record the audio on voice memos as the scene is taking place and try to match it up with the video. If this doesn't work out (it's my first time trying this) then I will just rely on the camera audio which might not be the best idea but again I'm going to have both options available in case one backfires.


My dad also owns a tripod that I can attach the camera to, so for shots that aren't supposed to be shaky, I can use that. Also in my opening, there is a car that the friends are driving in. The person who plays Claire said that I could use her car for those shots because she was already going to have it at the park.


Overall, I am very fortunate that I already had access to great equipment because it made this a LOT less stressful, and I can't wait to start filming!!
