• EMAILS- I ARRANGED MY MODELS AND MY INTERVIEWS BY SENDING THEM AN EMAIL ON

MY IPHONE. THIS SOFTWARE HAS HELPED ME OUT BY ALLLOWING ME TO COMPLETE
POSTS BY SENDING THEM TO MYSELF ON EMAIL AND BEING ABLE TO ACCESS GOOGLE
DRIVE, AND CREATE NEW WORKING GROUPS AND TIMETABLES.
• TRIPOD- THIS ALLOWED ME A STEADIER FILMING POSITION, THIS HELD OUR MAIN PIECE
OF EQUIPTMENT, THE CAMERA AND ALLOWED A MORE PROFFESIONAL APPROACH. I GOT
USED TO USING THIS AFTER A FEW GO’S, IT IS HARD TO GRASP AT FIRST.
• CLIP ON MIC- THIS ATTACHED TO THE CAMERA AND ALLOWED A CLEAR, CRISP
DIALOGUE RECORDING. THIS WAS EASY TO USE. I USED THIS HARDWARE TO MAINTAIN
AN EXPERT LIKE DOCMENTARY.
