iMovie - Camera Advice for Beginners and Veterans Alike

Hey folks, I have rules I want you to follow when filming:

1. Be careful with the camera. They have moving parts, glass, and are fragile.

2. The viewfinder kills batteries. Quickly. Only open it while filming.

3. Plan your shots carefully. Be aware of:
* background
* lighting
* camera stability
* time - keep shots 3-5 seconds long

4. You must import your footage by the end of class. Leave yourself 8-10 minutes.
