Props and Equipment

Shooting a video in town using only one car for transport makes our props very limited to what we were able to bring.


Video Camcorder

We used a mates old video camcorder to shoot our Video, this is obviously needed because it is the most important piece of equipment that we will use for filming the footage and shots we need.


Tripod

At first we were going to use this but then we realised it was to stable and that rap videos have hand held video camcorders so this prop was scrapped. Using this would have ensured is a steady firm handling which is quite the opposite of what we acctually needed.


Lighting

The lighting we used was a little attachable light that fit on to the video camcorder. We also used the surrounding lap post which we relied on.


Apple Mac Computer

The apple mac computer also had a big role in our music video, this was used to edit our pictures for our album cover/back, poster and steels via photoshop. These were located in the media classrooms which we have to upload our video to to edit it. We also used these macs to access our blogs to update them with relevant information.



My Car

My car played a role in the music video. The headlights were used to create more off an effect in black and white. It contributed to the video.


Bikes and Skate boards

These played a large role in our music video. The front cover of the album included a skateboard and also it related to our theme. The bikes and skateboards which we were influenced by 'Stormzy' was a prop.

 We also used a portable speaker to play the backing track whilst we recorded.
