    It’s always an amazing experience shooting for the first time managing resources..
    Thanks for sharing these great insights on Camera, Lences, Lights, Sounds, Location, Actors and Crew.
    What I learnt is that it is better to buy and own a good, cheap and affordable 4K or 6K pro cameras with lences like Black Magic than renting costly Red, Arih Cameras etc on daily bases for a first filmmaker.

    Getting a good Cinematographer who is committed to making great film is one great achievement.

    Good film budget, managing the Casts, Crew, equipments, locations and logistics are top priority.

    Thanks you so much Class Central for this great course.
