Planning - Camera Settings #23

 

The cameras we will be using

EOS Rebel 17 Canon 

 The Canon EOS Rebel T7 is a beginner-friendly DSLR camera that produces high-quality photos and videos. It features a 24.1-megapixel sensor, simple controls, and good low-light performance, making it suitable for student filmmaking and photography. The camera is easy to use while still allowing manual settings for more creative control.

Choosing the Canon EOS Rebel T7 as our main camera helps improve the quality of our film opening while still being easy for us to use as students. The camera’s high image quality and manual settings allow us to experiment with different shots and lighting to better match the tone of the film. This makes it easier to film planned scenes from our storyboard accurately and professionally.

To help build tension and create an unsettling mood, we plan to use low exposure in certain shots. This lighting choice helps emphasize mystery and suspense, especially during darker scenes. We will also be using an iPhone 11 for additional shots, which is convenient and still produces good-quality footage. Using both cameras gives us flexibility during filming and helps us capture the atmosphere we want for our film opening.
