Equipment for BAPK Documentary

[hillexallen]

Ok, so I'm making a list of equipment we will need for this project. This is what I have so far:

1. Cameras (I have one, but we could use one or two more.)

2. Audio equipment such as a mic for the camera, and a couple of mics that we can use to capture the sounds of different movements. (I am currently organizing the purchase of a high quality video mic.)

3. Editing programs (I have this pretty much taken care of.)

4. Tripods (We don't have any at this point.)

5. Lighting Stuff (Maybe)

PLEASE POST IN THIS THREAD OR ON THE "BAPK DOCUMENTARY" THREAD IF YOU CAN SUPPLY ANY OF THIS EQUIPMENT!!!

I have a very good tripod. And a steady-cam.

Alex; specifically what model camera do you use? My camera's a very old Handycam from 2001 or something, so that won't work, but I may be able to borrow an HD Sony Handycam. It records in 720i or 1080i or something like that, I think. Either way it's interlaced, which is kind of ugly, but still functional. I've seen editing programs with a de-interlace function, so that should fix it. I should have some test footage I can send you by Wednesday

I have a TRV-950 sony handycam. its good quality, though not HD

I have a Canon HG10. It has a Hard Disk Drive with 40GB of memory and it records in HD (1080i.)

It is also interlaced, but hopefully we can fix that with editing.

I've got a Sony HVR-A1 which shoots in 1080i and a few lenses. Also a semi pro shotgun mic, Several tripods, and lighting equipment. We could probably rent other equipment from De Anza where I'm a student or use their folley studio. Also I've been using After Effects for about 5 years this could be useful for transitions or title cards or just adding artistic details to a shot.
