Learning to use the camera

As we are filming tomorrow, I learnt how to use the camera. We went through how to set up the tripod to make sure it was level and stable. Then we were taught how to put the camera onto the tripod as we had to make sure it was facing the right way to film. We had used the tripods before so this part wasn't that hard it just refreshed our memories. The camera we used was different to the one we used last year so we had to learn all the basic skills and also how to make sure the white balance was correct. This was to make sure all the colours were as they should be. We did this by zooming into something white in the room and pressing correct. This then automatically sorted out the brightness of the colours. Now all of this was sorted we were all ready to go out filming tomorrow.
