Cool lights - tubes - better for globle warming

controll rooms - 2 / 1 for Audio and 1 for Visual

Sound tester - controll up to 12 mics.

Cameras

Talking about cameras bring me to my next part of research. You shouldn't mess around with cameras unless you know enough about them. I have draw and labled a diagram of a regular camera used in studio;

Rules with a camera

Smooth - tilt/pan (locks for both)

Dont stand on the cables

Keep locks on when not using

Ways of movement

Grab - When you move the camera from side to side. (normally when following a person move)

Tilt - this involes moving the camera up and down (this is perform with the camera staying still)

Zoom - Zooming is easy (its located on the arms of the cameras)

Types of shots

Mid shot - between chest and top of head ( this is used when someone is talking)

Close up - we didnt use this shot

wide shot - this shot shows the whole area being used.

Two shot - We used this when there are to people next to eachother in a convosation.
