1st day on the job

I arrived really early on the first day so I helped set up somevideo cameras. When the rest of the class arrived we were told about the different projects we will be doing and that we will make a new blog for each project so keep checking my profile for new blogs.

Later on I got put in a group and we had to record why we had chosen to take the CRAM diploma. We managed to get lots of good shots with Sony HDV 1080i's.

I got a chance to be the sound man, the camera man and also be in front of the camera. My favorite job was being the camera man as I find the easier and also doesn't make my are go numb.


We made the shots look really good by using white balance and changing the exposure.


The cameras had multiple settings for white balance like indoor, outdoor, auto and custom were you can set it up for yourself. This is so it is set up perfectly for the light conditions you are in.

We also changed exposure to stop the shot becoming to bright or to dark. We didn't do it on one of the shots and it looked very bad because it was just white and so we had to redo that one.

At the end of the day we looked at each others work and shared our opinions of the work we did.
