Health & Safety Tutorial for Cameras

During the tutorial, we were introduced to a top of the range JVC G4-HM100E Camcorder. We were taught how to use the camera and other components in order to film our thriller opening. The equipment we were inducted on consisted of:
  • JVC Camcorder
  • Battery
  • Memory Card
  • Tripod

This is the JVC Camcorder. We were taught how to turn it on, begin recording, opening and closing the lens protector and other various things. These are the basics when it comes to recording videos. We were also shown how to place memory sticks into the camera correctly and how to remove them. We were shown how to place, replace and take out specified batteries out of the camcorder. We were shown how to correctly place the camcorder on a tripod in order to get a firm shot of our subjects. And finally, we were taught the basic filming mistakes so we would not make them ourselves. One example of one is the "Rule of Thirds".
