Above is my Kit list for our Documentary 'Rewerked'. When making up this Kit List I've taken into account every detail for the kit, right down to the amount of batteries we'll have and memory cards. Requested by the Producer, I've also added in what days I need each piece of kit (working off her Schedule). For my own personal benefit I colour coded the list so that I can easily find what I need but also so that if I were to give this to one of my camera operators, they can easily find their way around and see what's needed. On the day of the performance, we'll have the most amount of kit and this is where this list will come in handy to also be a small check list to keep everything organised.
Through my camera tests I've been able to decide on what camera I'm using. My lighting tests and location research have helped me to decide to use my own personal lights. My LEDs (YN006 LED) to match with Tanya's room but also as a fill light outside if needed. Mixed in with the diffuser for interviews to give a softer light. As well, the Diffuser I have can also be a reflector which will be helpful with outdoor shoots/interviews. With actuality footage I may not need it but it'll be on stand by in case it's required.
In terms of audio equipment, I'll likely have to do audio and camera for interviews so I've added in the Rode Shotgun microphone to go onto the Canon C100 for back-up audio and also 4 lapel microphones. 1 for Tanya and the others for the experts and any other interviewee's we have. I also added in a Zoom H4 Audio recorder which I'll have set up for the day of recording the performance as I'll need to record:
- Tanya
- 3 Drag Queens
- Ambiance
- Vox pop style interviews
- Performance audio
With that in mind, I know I can have my 3 cameras recording audio from the back of the theatre, Tanya's microphone connected to my main camera and then the Zoom H4 to record the other Drag Queen.
