Software and Hardware that I used to create my opening sequence

Hardware

We used three different cameras to film out opening sequence as each camera enables us to achieve a different effect.

Firstly, we used a DJI Mavic Pro to film aerial shots of the car driving through the countryside.

The second camera that we used was a GoPro Hero 6 Black Edition to film from angles where we could not hold a large camera like in front of Scott whilst he was driving or attaching it to the car window to get a side on shot. We did this by using the GoPro with a suction mount which enabled us to attach it to the windscreen and the car window.

Lastly, we used a Canon EOS 760D DSLR camera. This is what we filmed the majority of the shots with.

We used a number of different lenses when filming, ranging from a close up macro lens to a large field of view, wide angle lens.

In order to guarantee that we had smooth footage, we used a tripod to support the camera whenever possible.

In order to ensure that the had good audio quality, we used an external microphone attached to the camera instead of using its built in microphone.

Software

Once we had filmed all of the footage that we needed, we then edited it in Final Cut Pro and then exported it using Compressor.
