No doubt about it, shooting all those awesome moments can give anyone a real buzz. Whether it\u2019s baby\u2019s first steps, seeing your kid off to his school prom, or your daughter\u2019s big day, any amateur filmmaker is going to be excited. But that way madness lies! Ok, not really madness \u2013 but certainly some errors which you may live to regret when it comes to watching and re-watching those moments on the small screen. So let\u2019s take a look at a few common mistakes we\u2019re all guilty of when shooting those precious moments, starting with\u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Zoom-Zoom-Zoom<\/span><\/p>\n The zoom function on camcorders is pretty handy, allowing you privileged access to shots you might miss out on, getting up close and personal with your newly christened baby, say. But that doesn\u2019t mean every shot requires a hard zoom. Or any zoom for that matter. It can totally distract from what\u2019s actually happening \u2013 sometimes we need to just let the picture itself tell the story.<\/p>\n Auto-Mode is Auto-Pilot<\/span><\/p>\n Ok, we know we just had a pop at the ol\u2019 zoom button, but really, that camcorder is a nifty little machine with some seriously cool bells and whistles. It may be easier to film with just auto-focus switched on, but when your kid\u2019s walking down the aisle the last thing you want is for the screen to go blurry. Or watch the colour bleed out because you haven\u2019t calibrated it properly. We definitely suggest checking out all you can about what your camcorder does, so you can capture those shots perfectly.<\/p>\n Eye-Level Lacks Creativity<\/span><\/p>\n With a video camera it\u2019s sure easy to just point and shoot, right? After all, it\u2019s in your hand, and you\u2019re standing, what more do you need? Well, by just shooting at standard eye-level you may be capturing everything as you see it, but you\u2019re also missing out on tons of really great shots. You can afford to be creative, especially if it means recording something that might otherwise be missed. Get down low, get up high, get as much range as you possibly can \u2013 not only will it make you feel like the next Spielberg, it\u2019ll also let viewers see the whole scope of the event. And that\u2019s more to make it memorable.<\/p>\n Here at Cine 2 DVD Transfers we love helping you relive those awesomely special memories.
