The first thing I'm going to have to confess is that I'm a newbie plain and simple. I've been looking at many other posts and just some of the terms everyone uses makes me completley loss. Anyways I'd like to learn more about anything and everything so if there's a beginners handbook to cameras, shots, angles, and editing systems I'd love to see it.
OK what I really came here to say is that I'm an aspiring director (who isn't now right?) of a movie that my friends and I have been filming. Since I didn't know much about cameras when I chose a camera to buy i basically just picked what i thought in my mind looked good. I ended up getting a Sony Digital 8, HI 8/8mm playback. We filmed some scenes and are now using just your plain old windows movie maker to edit it. I'm wondering if their is a really good but cheap editing software out there that would fit with my camera.
