Hi Dudes
A friend and I are about to embark on a film making project and I'm doing some research into what the best starter package would be for our needs.
My background is in music, sound design, synth programming and a little dabble in writing music for film and video. I am aware of some of the technicalities but i'd like to learn more about it in this forum.
My ideas so far are thus :-
Camera - Panasonic Lumix GH2
Mics - One or two boom mics paired with a ZoomH4N that I already own.
Lenses - No idea. Is there a basic selection of lenses that are a good idea to start with?
Miscellaneous - Tripods, lighting, screens, dolly etc - all advice welcome.
We're trying to keep the budget as low as possible (around £2000) and I really don't mind looking at used items on Ebay.
I realise this is a pretty open ended question, but I'm learning as I go.
Thanks
