Equipment and Requirements/Needs



Western digital passport 500GB from Amazon Uk at £55.50

This is a vital device we need to order for the day of filming as the staff in MTV stated that we would need a portable storage device to carry all of the film clips and will need to take it back on the train back to school/home, we will also a large amount of data as we not know how much space we may take up on the day and may need extra clips just in case the ones we have taken to not meet our requirements for example. As we need to organise the shots to our preference when getting back to school to edit on Apple Mac's Final cut express.


Shot lists and Storyboards to use as guidelines for making our music video as well as instructing the band and other members what actions and shots they have to perform when filming. We have therefore scanned the storyline and printed a number of copies to hand out.

Transportation (Day one and two) overground and underground return travel card as I live in town near to Bishops Stortford station I will go down early enough on the day to get the right day ticket and check the price schemes.

Vision mixer, four HD cameras light and more are already available at MTV studios we will not to worry about this except remembering to ask the staff how to operate it before filming so we don't lose any time.

Band Equipment such as guitars, drum kit, microphone, speakers/amps etc are provided by the band we are using for our music video, they have already hired a minibus to store the instruments in and transport to the location we will then help to take it out and set it up. It is important to do this before hand as the equipment is heavy and we will need play about with the layout so it looks suitable on film as well as saving time.

In conclusion it is important to remember these things as we do not want to do this at the last minute which may affect the time we have at MTV and the filming itself.
