Tips on Digital Movie Making For Starters and Pros

Whether you are creating a short film about a loved one or about to produce a short film requirement for your filmmaking class, digital movie making is now a mainstay and not just a trend.

Both the amateur trainee and the professional filmmaker must know the things needed to be checked when filming a movie. Here are some basic tips that are applicable to both types of filmmakers:

The Equipment

Digital film technology has reached the stage of advancement wherein even those who have no knowledge at all about it or filmmaking per se can come up with professional-appearing videos and short films about family and friends.. This is so since the equipment used is so user-friendly. However, you should know how to choose the one that fits your needs and different uses.

You must know that digital video camcorders come in various formats. The MiniDVs film on small tapes while video cameras film on HDD or High Disk Drive. DVD camcorders on the other hand record videos straight on discs that you can view on your DVD player.

If you are to use it for short films of family gatherings, the MiniDV is the more suitable since it is handy and user-friendly. The other kinds of cameras also carry with them their own advantages. Video cameras are a good choice for sharing work with others. This is a good choice for those who are studying filmmaking and have to share their work to a group. The advantage of the DVD camcorders is its large storage which is suited for those who produce full-length films or professional ones.

You must have a video editing software too but you should not worry as it can be found built-in in almost all desktop PC’s and laptops as well.

The Angles and Shoots

For you to be able to have professional shots, you need to take into consideration the four aspects: lighting and exposure, stability, audio and editing. Digital video camcorders don’t work quite well in an environment with a wide range of lighting. Always take into consideration that lighting should be uniform.

For purposes of stability, particularly for the small cams, make use of tripod when filming or a digital stabilizer of you have it. Keep in mind that the slightest movement on the cam can damage the whole scene.

A camcorder has built-in basic audio devices. In order for you to have better sound quality, you can place a boom microphone on the audio input port and place it nearer to the subjects when filming.

When you edit it’s best to keep away from many effects, keep it simple and the film won’t appear too amateurish.
