Below is a list of said equipment along with a list of who will being doing what primarily while shooting.
First of we have what all film makers need, A Camera. We felt it would be best to use a HD Camera, provided by Josh, to record our film for a couple of reasons. These being; instead of the film being recorded to a tape, it is recorded to a memory unit. This makes things easier for us as we dont need to worry about losing the tape or forgetting it. Secondly, because a scene in our film is set at night we came to the conclusion that to best capture the footage for this scene we would benefit from recording it using a HD Camera.
As well as a Camera we will also need a Tripod to aid us in filming any panned or tilted shots in our film. We decided it would be best to book one from School rather than purchase our own. We picked the one with the smoothest movement so that we do not accidently jolt the camera on a pan, or get any shakey cam.
The next item is very simple, This Tripod Adapter will enable us to attach the Camera to the tripod with ease.
Lastly we have the Tracking Dolly and Tracks. These will help us make effective and good looking tracking shots and possibly when panning.
That covers all of our equipment for shooting our film. Next step is to decide who will cover each area while the group is on set a ready for a take. To do this we decided to look at our strengths and weaknesses.
