In order to film my music video to a high quality I will be using a DSLR camera to record all of the footage for my music video. A DSLR camera has the capabilities to record in 1080p - 4K at 60 fps. These settings are the typically industry standard requirements to make footage appear smooth, crisp, professional and easier to edit with.
My first choice of DSLR camera to record with would be either a Canon 700D or alternatively a Sony A7s, both of these cameras have superior filming capabilities and are very reliable.

Hand held filming may not always be necessary and can sometimes appear very shaky to a viewer of the footage. In order to make my recordings steady and at a static position/height I will use a tripod to film certain clips such as long shots and panning shots.

A steadi-cam stick/frame is a structure that helps automatically prevent and reduce hand held camera shake. These are very useful for close up shots where a hand held shot must be used and the shakiness of the footage must be reduce to a minimum. This equipment is very popular with most camera operators.

Despite my music video being primarily lip-synced and the need for audio from my performers to be at a minimum, it is still important that some form of microphone is utilized in order to capture the ambient sounds in the background of my recording such as in the first few introductory seconds of the video to help set the scene.

As I will potentially be filming in a variety of places it is important that I can correctly expose the people and items in a scene correctly and appropriately. I will need to use different lighting equipment for different scenarios whilst filming. For example I will need to use a soft box (a light in a white translucent box) for some interior scenes where a 'soft' lighting style is required. Similarly, I may also require the use a directional light. This is a bright light that is pointed directly into one space or location to 'light up' a character or item in the scene. The use of both of these lighting pieces will be necessary for different settings and uses whilst filming the music video.

A dolly is a structure that enables cameras to be moved steadily in various directions without the interference of camera shake and motion blur. This may not be necessary in every shot, for transitioning shots and scenes where the camera slowly follows the character in scene this can help enable this moments to appear crispy and of high quality.

After completely filming the music video, I will need to compose the videos into one complete edit using a powerful computer such as an Apple Mac or an equivalent system. Using video editing software that computers have access to, such as Adobe Premiere Pro of Final Cut Pro, I will be able to edit each video clip to the style of the genre and so that it appears original within my own additions. I will need to make sure all of the clips are synced with the beat and the lyrics for performance parts and also add effects such as color correction, transitions and VFX. These of which are very important to giving it a extra professional appearance.
