Recording Equipment

GoPro Hero 2

• The Go Pro is a piece of equipment that is used for many angles that are not normally able to achieve with normal cameras. It comes with a special mount that you can attach to any place you want. For our short film we are going to use the Go Pro Harrison's car and James' bike. For James' bike it is going to be used on his helmet and on the various fairings of his bike.
• The Go Pro comes with a suction mount that we will use to attach it to the car and bike.
• This is a video that James has recorded to test out his Go Pro on his bike here.
• Here are a few videos that I have found on YouTube that are what we want to try;
• On the front of the bike with the camera looking at Jame's face.
• On the back of the bike facing James' back. 'Tail Cam'.
• Another shot of the cam being on the front of the bike looking at James' face.
• This is 17 different angles on a motorcycle.
• Here are a few videos of car angles that we want to try;
• Here is one from inside the car on the back shelf facing out the front windscreen.
• On the dashboard facing the driver.
• Mounted from the sun roof, not being able to see the driver maintaining enigma.
• Here are also a few more Go Pro mounts for a car.

Sony HD Handycam

• The Sony HD Handycam is the camera that is given to us by the college that we use for the majority of our filming. It has stunning quality and is fairly easy to use, easy white balance and has manual focus changing which is a neat feature.
• We are going to use a standard tripod to record with and make it steady and we are also going to use a steadycam to get some smooth moving footage, especially going to be used for the dog walker and the dog.
