Our physical equipment



For our production, we used various equipment to enhance our music video - our main one was of course a fully HD camera used to record all of our work. The camera is fully compatible with software such as "Final Cut" so we are able to easily edit our captured footage.




We also had a tripod used to keep the camera in one place - we used a tripod with the camera so the footage for a number of reasons, the main being so that we could capture some still footage. Another reason we use the tripod is so we have an extra group member available to use - normally we would have to compromise one member to hold the camera, so this is also a bonus. The device is also great for medium and long-shots - the device isn't shaken or interfered then - and would enhance our production.




The Dolly camera is designed to create smooth camera movements (cinematic techniques). The camera is mounted to the dolly and the camera operator can then focus on his production without worrying about camera composition.




As a group of four, three members have iPhone 4s. We can therefore use our phones as extra camera devices if we choose to. This would benefit us as we would be able to create more camera-angles of the same scene so it would enhance our options when we choose to edit our production. Unfortuantely, however, the iPhone would take time to transfer the data to the computers in college as the software we use isn't fully compatible.
