production equiptment

history:
in 1888 the first film camra was desined by louis le princh it was a simple camera compared to todays cameras it was a 14-24 frame per second. the early cameras where not moterised and had to be operated by hand. because of this depending on how long the film was some shots would not be in sink as it had less frames than the previous shot.

in 1929 kodak launched a 16mm film stock for cameras. this was a good peice of equiptment as it was smaller cheeper and was more avalable for amiture film makers. in the 1930's the bbc experemented on digital cameras. they used they where useing cathode ray teubes.

in the 1950's films where being releced in couler. because of this many more people went to see these films. because films where becomeing more populer in the 1950's more films where releced in couler in the 1960's.
in the early 2000's mini DR was a digital type based format but was soon followed by DVD hard disk drive and finaly SD card\ compact\solid stare flas based recording.

production equiptment

there are three main functions of controling the way an image is exposed correctly with a camera; shuter speed (how quiqly an image is captured)
a pertuve (controls dof)
iso (sensitivity)
the most common lighting setup is the '3 point' this is when there is a three light set up from a key light, fig light and a back light.

lighting is important for film as it makes the image more dinamic and interesting, lighting creates depth, creating the illushion of a three dimentinal image subject inside the frame (two dimention)
