Tripod

As I have used the schools cameras in previous film projects and have not been overly pleased with the results and the quality, me and two other students have decided to order a tripod that fits our phones and share it between us. The quality of the iPhone 6 will be better than the school camera so buying this tripod will allow me to get good quality, steady videos. Sharing the tripod might cause some problems because we might need to use it at the same time, but as long as we all ensure that we plan our filming in advance there should be no real issue. As I plan to film over the Christmas holidays, I will have a lot of free time to move days of filming around if I need to.

Typically, a review will contain interviews and key quotes from directors and actors, and images of the actors posing as their characters. I will need to do this in mine to recreate a realistic article. The colours in these tend to just be a white background with black words, or a large blue title. This
