Weapon of Choice!

What is your weapon of choice? Of course by weapon, I mean camera. If you want to be an independent filmmaker, then your probably going to need a camera. Now the biggest influence on which camera will probably be money for most people, I know it was for me. What is the most camera, for the least amount of green. There are so many different choices for video cameras. DSLR's are probably the route I would recommend. Honestly the DSLR's have the best quality for the least amount of money. Before you choose, do research on every possible thing you can. The Canon EOS 60D and the Nikon D7100 have been fighting for the top spot on consumer reports for about two years now. Once you've spent the money there is no going back. I chose the Canon EOS 60D, what will you chose?

Introduction!

Welcome everyone to Cinema Oasis. My name is Jeremy Finnestad. I am a Mass Media major at Washburn University. In this blog I wish to share some of my knowledge of filmmaking. We will talk about important traits such as sound, equipment, lighting, and other interesting things to help your videos look as good as possible.  Of course I am still learning, but I have learned a couple of neat tricks and would like to share them in this blog with you!
