Researching in the Library
So one lunch time I went to the library to research nature photography. I looked at these three books which I found very interesting. It gave me ideas in ways to take photos and took some advice forward into my FMP. The books say how to photograph wildlife, like the best angels and shot types, but also more technical things like, aperture and shutter speed. The 'Heart of Britain' book showed a lot of dramatic atmospheric shots of woods and seas, this makes me want to create something similar to this. My film won't be just a boring old nature film, I want to make it as dramatic as I can, with lens flares and overexposed shots to bring out the magic and atmospheric emotions. Also footage that will be in harmony with the music.
It said to film wildlife you have to be very patient and pretty much let the wildlife come to you. Things like squirrels and bird of prey they are very hard to capture because there really fast and you have to be very quite to film them. You wont capture anything if your really loud, maybe a small insect if your lucky. Creep around and blend in, into the surroundings and be patient. I plan to take away some of this advice as I think it will really help me out.
