The camera we used to film our Thriller Opening Sequence was the Sony NX5 due to the fact that it shoots in 25FPS and with a resolution of 1080p. For more controlled shots, we also used a vinten tripod as it was easy to adjust and with the addition of an attached dolly handle we were also able to make our pan and tilt shots smoother and easier to execute. I really enjoyed being able to both film and direct and I hope that I will be able to do such again soon. The Sony NX5 was surprisingly easy to use, and so the experience was really enjoyable as we didn't have to fret about what we were doing. Matt also taught us how to change the lens and gave us a few cool ideas in terms of shots - such as a handheld tracking shot.
We were also given a shotgun microphone with a pistol grip to get clearer recordings of the sound used within our sequence and so after filming our sequence, we decided to record some additional foley sounds to use for the purpose of our editing.
