Camera research- Nikon & Go-pro hero 4


We are going to be filming our movie opening two minutes using cheifely the Nikon Cool-pix L840, however we will be using the Go-Pro HERO 4 alongside this. We are using the Nikon to film our still shots most importantly because of its high quality and ability to record at high resolution and playback. The Nikon camera we are using also has an extortionate storage memory, meaning we can repetitively shoot our different scenes and action that goes on to get the best possible cuts and camera angles. The sound clarity is high quality on this particular camera also- however we still wish to include some of the sound aspects of our movie by pre recording sound through Foley. 

The Go-Pro HERO 4 is going to be used by us to capture the more active scenes of the movie opening, as well as being used to capture action from different angles. We will also be taking full advantage of this particular camera because it is best when used for sporting/ high paced action and scenes so we are going to use a hired chest strap and head strap to strap onto our male actor when he is running from the crime scene to receive point of view shots and canted angle and handheld appearing shots creating an uneasy feeling. 

Alongside these cameras we are using a school provided tripod which will keep the Nikon camera sturdy and supported. We will only be using this tripod when using the Nikon camera because the HERO 4 is going to be used to film more uneasy shots taking on traits from self filmed movies like the Blair witch project.
