Equipment List

For our opening sequence, we will need:

• Digital Video Camera; this is the most important piece of equipment that we will need this in order to film our opening sequences as this is what we will use to film the actual film. The camera must be of high quality as it will make the film look a lot better if the camera's quality is high. If we were to use a camera with a low resolution and low mega pixels then it would look more fuzzy and hazy therefore meaning the quality of the clip would not be as good.

• Tripod; we will also need a tripod in order to stand the camera up and keep it steady for certain shots that need more or less height and/or shots that need to stationary. We would attach the camera onto the tripod to film shots that are not moving shots. For moving takes we would most likely just hold the camera to create the effect of a hand held shot, or if need be a dolly, however this is extremely unlikely so I do not think we will need include a dolly in our equipment list.

• Apple Mac Computer; this is also an essential piece of equipment that we will need to use. This is simply because we need to use the software Final Cut Express in order to edit our opening sequence to make all the different takes fit together and look good. This software is only available on Mac computers so we need to be able to have regular access to one in order to complete the opening film

• Digital Audio Recorder: We will need the digital audio recorder to record the non-diagectic sound of the chanting. We have decided to use the audio recorder instead of the video recorder because this would sound more successful and also more clearer. 

• Lighting: For the lighting we would be using candles to show a ominous presence on the screen. The lighting would make the main character feel trapped as this would show that the female character is trapped from the light, such a electricity and day light.
