Week 3 - Camera 1

I have always thought that when it comes to filming there are no quite difficult aspects of doing it but i was totally wrong... Behind every single video or movie there are lots of not that easy things to do. What I learnt from the third week of my module was that even assembling the camera is a very big challenge. Firstly, we were in a different room and we had to make a group of 3-4, go to Hires and Loans and borrow an equipment. Before setting up the camera there were some technical aspects and settings that we have to bear in mind too. We learnt other essential things such as: the importance of juxtaposition, white balance, zooming, adjusting the height and setting up the driver. What my group found it difficult was not coming up with an idea and shooting it but setting up the camera itself. I believe in time this will be improved.
