Health And Safety

In the health and safety tutorial we was shown how we are meant to use the cameras.  We were shown the camera, the memory card and the battery and also how and where to insert them. We learnt the different functions of the camera and to set up the tripod, also how to secure the camera onto the tripod until it locks without it falling off or having damage. We learnt how to use the zoom in and out button, how to turn the camera from auto to manual and how to record and how to play back recorded footage. We were shown a few shots about the framing and how the spacing of the frame shouldn't be too above the character/subject or too far to the right or left (the rule of thirds), and what over the shoulder shots should look like.

Things not to forget are:

·         To not leave camera out in rain or near running water.

·         Use camera safely and securely.

·         Always have the camera with you or in a safe place at all times.

·         Return camera on time in college.
