2. Pre-production
 Before filming our media production we had to consider many factors that
could effect the quality of our film. For example for the outside scene we had
to consider the weather (e.g. wind), number plates on cars and any
background noise such as traffic. For the weather problem we had to try and
film in a day that wasn’t windy and for the noise we filmed on a quiet street
with no traffic. We also made sure no number plates from cars parked near
buy were in any shots.
 We also had to think about lighting in the gym scene as there wasn’t many
windows to let natural light in, however when filming it was light enough to
see everything clearly in the shot.
 To help make the voices clearer and make the sound of the wind not
noticeable we could have used a mic on the camera which would have picked
up the sound of the character’s voices better.

3. Camera
 For filming this media production we used the Panasonic HC-V550 video
camera which has 1/5.8in High Sensitivity CMOS with 1.5Mpixels and a 42x
zoom; 50x iZoom.
 We used this camera as it allowed us to zoom and pan easily which was
essential for some of the scenes in our film, such as the vertical pan used
when the main character’s wife is falling to the ground.
