How to use your equipment:
Always make sure: You use a tripod for the view to be straight and not shaky unless you want the camera to be seen as a person. Make sure the camera is secure.

Rule of thirds
The rule of thirds Is where you would make your point
of what you want a audience to focus on or the part
that you would like to stand out would be on one of
the lines of intersection lines.

Lighting
When recording a project always make sure
you have the correct lighting for your
background or from the front this is because
you would find when editing or recording
your camera man or women’s body will
be exposed which would have
problems because your film will not be
realistic to your audience.
Also always make sure if
you are filming on different
days that the weather and
lighting is the same,
because if you need the
film to be the same
weather and lighting for a
scene you may find trouble
if its sunny on one and
rainy on the next.

Background Subject You always need to think about the
background of your scene, unless you are
doing a close up from the actor, this is
because if you want your scene set it 1970’s
you need to make sure there is no technical
or equipment that would confuse the
audience and make your film unbelievable.
Make sure your background gives your
audience clues as to where your movie and
scenes are set.
Make sure everything in your scene
sure your actors and equipment fits
the subject that you want it to or it
won’t work through out the film.
Camera shots angles and movements
Shot angles:
Birds eye view:
This is to make the actor or actress look small towards the audiences view; it’s mainly used in Horror movies to
make the actor look small and scared.
Eye level:
This is used to make the audience feel as if they are
being in the movie or talked to.
Worms eye:
Shows the person as being bigger it has an impact on the
audience because it makes the person look scary or big
in size.
Shot sizes:
Extra close up:
Shows the face up closely, showing no background so the audience does not know where the movie is set.
Extreme long shoot:
This is taken from far away showing a small actor
and a lot of the background.
Medium shot:
Shows half of the body either waist up or waist
down showing a little background.
Camera movements:
These are the movements the camera makes e.g. zooming in and out to show the audience sweet for
the actor being scared etc.
