my music video will include scenes that require the shots to be filmed in real time.
I have tested other cameras and their ability to film. The two cameras that I tested did not have a good enough quality. The results were not suitable and would not be a good enough standard for my music video. I then did some research into cameras that were capable of filming at a decent quality while at a low cost.
Then I got the camera filmed a video of a still recording in real time and one while i was moving. The results can be seen in the embedded video. The end product was great and I am happy that I have the suitable piece of equipment for my music video as the camera has many suitable features.
However, during filming and later re-watching the footage, I noticed that the lighting was not great. Although I was not focussing on the lighting and instead the slow motion feature, it definitely gave me something to consider and be concerned about when it comes to planning and researching lighting. I will have to carefully consider the locations in which I am filming, and whether they can facilitate lights if necessary. Plus, some of my video will be filmed outdoors, so I will have to keep in mind the month I will be filming during (most likely January) and the subsequent effect on lighting it will have.

Here are images of the camera i will be using the Cannon EOS
Here we have practised using the camera so we know what we are doing when it comings to filming our music video.
Below are two videos which are tutorials of how to use the camera this is so i can develop my understanding on how to use the equipment.
Planing : Camera Testing
The camera that we are going to use when we film our music video is the canon eos 1100d. In the video above you can see a full tutorial of the camera in use. The link below will take you to the PDF file for a manual of the Canon EOS 1100D:
