Before we can start filming our video we must take into account the types of shots which we are trying to achieve. From this, we are now determining which of the equipment we can use to help us achieve our desired shots and angles in our video.
After discussing what shots we need we have organised which pieces of equipment that we shall be using for the performance and narrative aspects of the video. The following list of equipment are what we have decided on using at some point throughout the video.
Camera - we will be using a Nikon camera D5100 which will be used to film the majority if not all of our footage for both the performance and the narrative.
Tripod - We are going to use a standard tripod and possibly a heavy tripod in order to get a steady and focused camera. This will be good when filming shots in which there is little movement in them as it can pan very easily and steadily.
Additional Lens - We may decide to use different lenses in order to achieve unique effects throughout the video to show different atmospheres and make shots appear more professional than just the standard lens.
Crane - We'd like to use this in order to be able to change the height of a shot part way through a take which creates a far more professional look in use. This would be quite difficult to assemble when filming parts of the narrative, such as in the nightclub, but in terms of performance, it would give us our desired effect. it also means we can take a high angle and move it with ease to a low angle.
Lighting - We are still to decide on the number of lights we would like to use but we do now know that we want to have at least 2-4 LEDs as fewer than that would mean that our footage would turn out too dark and so would otherwise render our footage useless.
Go-Pro - We have an idea fro a shot that we would like to film under water, therefore we are thinking of using a go-pro to achieve this effect.
