Turning the Marquee into a makeshift studio

 In the summer months it is warm enough and usually quiet enough to film outside in the Marquee. We can easily get several lights a backdrop or two and enough room to move the cameras back to get good angles on the subjects. It also offers us time to make different types of films.

First Birthday

My @Blackmagic_News Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera is 1 year old today. We have made over 150 educational videos together. Over the year it has acquired another identical camera for the video conferencing and general film making. We now have  several zoom lenses for this and a collection of fast primes for the daily work. A better camera has demanded better lighting and sound, all of which have improved our quality of production.
