Slider
My slider arrived which is great! But when I opened it I realise that it needs an adapter to allow a fluid head from one of my new tripods to be attached to it. I have now ordered one and it should arrive very soon.
So I still can’t actually test it yet. But it looks really great. I really like the flywheel on it. When I was looking at it online and watching people reviewing it, most of them moved it by turning the flywheel. But there were a couple of people who pointed out that even just with the flywheel in position, even if you are not turning the flywheel, it being connected makes the camera move so much more smoothly. So I am looking forward to that.
Lights
It is now looking very likely that I may need to film me speaking to camera inside. I had already decided on the lights that I would like as part of my 18th Birthday present, and they seem to be at a good price at the moment, so my parents said we can order them.
Ongoing Location saga
I found out at the weekend that another neighbour is starting noisy outdoor building work too. So, all my back up locations are proving challenging. I will just have to keep going with everything else and see what happens.
I have been editing some test filming and I have put it on my website, partly to get feedback from my tutors, and also to show my journey so far.
