Intro to cameras & health and safety Tutorial


In this session we were shown the basic skills on how to use the cameras most effectively and safely. The basic skills we were shown were things such as:
  • how to put the tripod up and how to collapse it.
  • how to view footage we have shot on the camera
  • how to open and close the camera shutter
  • how to fix the camera onto the tripod
  • how to put the memory card and battery in the camera

We also did a small exercise which taught us how to focus and listened to a short speech on the do's and dont's when filming such as

  • filming in the dark is not recommended because the picture quality isn't good
  • dialogue is also not recommended because the equipment isn't good enough quality for good quality sound
