Hi guys,
New to the forum. Hope you all are doing well.
So my roommate and I have spent some time brainstorming getting into a new hobby and one of the things we really wanted to try was making our own films, but we need a little bit of help getting started in the right direction.
Essentially the type of films we wanted to do would be more of a documentary/narrative. In short we would like to shoot someone seated in front of a screen while superimposing other footage that was filmed live next to them, allowing them to narrate their experience through it. At least, that would be a core function of what we were trying to do.
That said, to get started we kind of need to start identifying the appropriate hardware and software. We were hoping that we could get some decent gear for a reasonable price, but we're both new to this field (Engineers by profession) and don't have a lot of experience shopping around so we need some help identifying what is good equipment at a fair price.
I imagine we'd need the following equipment:camera, microphone, lighting, tripod, editing software but that's just my starting guess.
Thanks so much for the help!
