In this section we have listed all the documentation we have written about use of video cameras and the video editing software we have available in the Trible Library Media Center.
Please consider the following:
Do you need a tripod? We have two main types - regular and fluid head. Fluid head tripods allow for smoother tilting and panning. We also have tripod dollies to allow you to put the tripod on wheels so you can roll it around easily.
External microphone needed? Lavaliers are great for one person shots, but we also have shotgun microphones for better pickup. Not all of our cameras work with these so ask if they are compatible. Lavalier/lapel mics are also available as wireless.
SD Card? Most of our cameras have internal memory. We also have SD cards of many sizes for you to capture footage on. Ask about them if you feel you may need one.
More lighting for filming? We have LED lighting kits and on camera lights that help with giving more light when needed.
