EQUIPMENT 

SONY DSC-HX

I am going to use a Sony DSC-HX camera and camcorder to film my music video. This high definition camera will allow me to capture high quality pictures and frames. 

I have had plenty of experience when using this camera, so i am able to change the colour and settings manually. 

​Here are some key performances from this device. 

 

  • New 28 - 560 mm equiv 'G' lens
  • Ultra fast 10 fps continuous shooting speed
  • HD movie recording at up to 1440x1080 at 30 fps
  • Intelligent Auto mode
  • Unique sweeping panorama, twilight, and anti-shake modes
  • A revised menu system (Home menu is gone)
  • HDMI port

TRI-POD

A sturdy, stable tripod that’s properly set up will get you sharper pictures every time. This light weight tripod is cleverly concealed in the handle that controls its 3 way head is a fully adjustable table top tripod. This tripod will allow my shots and frames to be straight and  prevent an off centred frame.

LIGHTING

LIGHTING

I will need to use appropriate lighting when I film the performance pieces for my music video. 

The lighting that I will be using has adjustable settings which control the power of the lighting, enabling me to have a range of options, from soft lighting  to harsh lighting. 

I will experiment with the lighting equipment before I begin filming to achieve a successful outcome. Some of my music video I will be using natural lighting, instead of artificial lighting. However, when I am filming in the studio I will need to use equipment, to achieve a professional look. 

The more professional my music video looks, my target audience will be more attracted and take my music video seriously.
