Into to cameras/health and safety tutorial

In this tutorial we was introduced to the cameras and equipment. We were shown how to use the camera/equipment.

JVC Video Camera
This is the most important tool as it is used when filming for every shot. We were shown the on/off button, zoom in and out and how to view the shots we previously took.

Battery
This provides the energy for the camera as without this it wouldnt work. In the lesson we were shown how to install the battery into the camera and how to take it out.

Tripod
This equipment is used to hold the camera in place which then you can take better, quality shots unless you want a hand held shot. We were shown how to open the tripod and adjust the legs so each ohne was set in the right balance. We were also shown how to place the camera onto the tripod as it has to be locked on and the safe way to take it off.

Memory Card
This is where all the shots are saved. We were shown the memory card slots where the memory card is inserted into. When filming we were given two memory cards(A,b) to ensure that we had enough space to save the filming. We were shown that there was a lock on the memory card and if this was on the card wouldnt work and you wouldnt be able to save or record your filming.

Health and Safety aspects:
Prevent the camera from getting wet
Always close the len ses of the camera
To make sure your battery is charged and all your equipments are working properly before you use them
