Equipment List

A list of technical equipment which we will need for our production, and post production is a crucial part in actually enabling us to film the opening sequence. Below is the list of equipment which is vital for us.

Digital Video Camera:
- This will be needed to record our footage, and is perhaps the most important piece of equipment needed to complete or even start an opening sequence.
Tripods:
- This will be used so we are able to place our camera on a steady surface when filming the first location of our sequence.
Lighting:
- A candle light will be used both in the first and second location, although we will have a small amount of lighting in the background this will be the prevailing light used. This is because of the flickering effect a candle has on the characters face.
Radio:
- We will need an old radio player, but although this will be featured in our opening sequence the music playing doesn’t need to come play from it, therefore a radio playing music off the scene will be just as effective.
Apple Mac Computer:
- This is a vital piece of equipment which we need. Once the filming has been completed we will then use the Macs to edit the footage. The two main software’s we will be using is ‘Final Cut Express’ and ‘Live Type’.
Audio Recorder:
- This will be used so we can hear more clearly the girl trying to scream whilst her mouth is taped shut.

This is an example of an audio recorder, tripod, digital camera and an Apple Mac, all which we are going to use for our opening sequence.
