Professional Practise - Potential Equipment to Use on Shoot

This blog will be about the different equipment  that will be used during the shoot and justifications into why I chose these equipment bits and bobs.

Number one, the GoPro, now because I am the producer I will have little input in what shots are used but I will talk about why we are using certain bits and bobs. The GoPro would be great for first person shots such as interacting with the computers and equipment that they deal with, would be great to walk through the office. 

Number two, something experimental in this film, the Tripod Slider Dolly. this will be great for them really smooth dolly sequences that will be in this film, very portable too, so can be easily transported than a normal dolly.

Number three, the ZoomH4N W/ Boom Pole and Rode Mic setup. This is essential for getting the best sounding interviews that will be used in this film. The reason I chose a boom over a Radio mic is because I don't like the way that the clip mic sounds, very 'tinny' whereas the boom with rode setup we don't have to worry about batteries, interference and its like super cardiod so there is no problem picking up the contributors sound. 

Number four, this is potential but not for definite, the BlackMagic Pocket Camera. This captured INSANELY good quality on my shoot before, so I might use this again for the next shoot.
