Equipment - REBECCA


For shooting our horror teaser trailer there is many different types of equipment which we are to use and we are lucky enough to be able to us the equipment given to us by the college.



We will be using a Cannon 7D. we will be using this for both photos to document our pre-production and process before shooting and also to shoot the actual trailer as well. Our teaser trailer will  look very professional using this camera, and we will be able to achieve prefect images for our production.









This is the tripod that we may have to use to steady our camera  when shooting. this will help us get a good focus on images and will able us to steady our images.












This we may need to use occasionally when shooting if we were to track someone or something.  While the camera is in a fix position, it will give us clear and stable image, while adding tracking what we need to.




LIGHTING.
 when it comes to shooting our trailer lighting is key and will be very important. we have to make sure that lighting is accurate and that we do it right. if we are able to create the lighting to our advantage we should be able to use the lighting to add tension and fear to our trailer.
so therefore we have done some research on it:

Hard light is what a bit like what you find like on a sunny day, it creates very bright and very dark areas in the same scene. Another example of hard light is when the camera's flash is the only light source, resulting in bright subjects against a very dark background. 
< this is an example of hard lighting in photography as you can see some areas are extremely dark and some areas are bright.



Soft light is very camera-friendly. Cloudy days and large shaded areas offer soft light with no harsh shadows or intense bright spots. so this is usually quite flattering. 

The basic lighting scheme is a three-point system.
A key light- this is the primary light in the scene, it stimulates the natural light in the scene, e.g. the outdoors. 
The fill light is supposed to partially fill in, or soften, the shadows created by the key light. It is a lower intensity and more diffuse light than the key light. It is usually placed on the opposite side of the camera from the key light
The back light is placed above and to the rear of the subject, so that the light does not come directly into the camera lens. It helps to outline the subject, especially the upper portion, and to separate it from the background.
