Filming (AS Task)

We used Canon XM2 for filming and we filmed onto DV tapes, this has a advantage which is that it is cheap and it can hold alot of footage however this has the disadvatage of audible noise being recodred of the tape being wound. We used a tripod to reduce hand movements and shakes from the person holding the camera this means that the video will be usable.

For the cut away shots we handheld the camera, this doesn't matter because the scenes are short. Also it gave better flexability for pans, as controlling the camera while panning with a tripod is difficult.

While filming for better sound quaility we should have used the microphones we have access too, but the microphone is sutable for the shots we used because the people were close enough to hear thier voices well enough.
