Introductory to the short feature ( choosing the camera)

 The camera that I am am going to use for my short feature is Canon 200D. This camera is not very complicated to use and can capture some staggering shots. It can capture up to 24.2 megapixels, 5 frames per second, and offers up to 80 different lenses. A new processor named as DIGIC 7 was introduced and it can capture in low-lighitng conditions (when there is no direct light coming towards the source). The APS-C-sensor makes it much more easier to shoot in better conditions such as using a shallow depth field which it is very ideal when filming in portrait.



These necessary setting will be adjusted in order to produce the best high quality video possible. Apart from the camera , I will be using a tripod for the shooting of the video. A tripod is necessary so it stabilizes the shots when filming the B-Roll around Gozo.  Alongside the B-Roll, an interview will take place with a Gozitan , and will explain to us a typical day living in Gozo. He will also suggest some different interesting places to visit to engage the audience with this small beautiful island. For the interview, I will be using a lapel microphone in order to have the best quality sound.

The handheld shot is a kind of shooting that does not rely on a fixed camera location, and includes everything from shaky cameras to shoulder mounts and simple rigs. Operators also use simple rigs including a shoulder mount or easy-rig, depending on the camera's weight and size, to relieve the physical stress of an operator and allow them more control over the degree of camera wobble. The first handheld shots were used in the years of 1925 by filmmakers , Handheld camera movies did not become popular in the United States until the 1960s. At a point when the handheld shot was deemed unconventional, Jean-Luc Godard, one of the founders of the french new wave, used this technique. Alongside the handheld, the shaky cam technique was developed and used more frequently in films, ...
