neat manor

when we pan right across a flower bed. We will be using the
slider because it enables us to do the following things;
 Place the slider on the floor and put the camera on to it and
track right.

12. Lighting + Soft box + reflector
 We will use the lights for all of our interviews as we want
our subjects to look good and visible. We will also be using a
soft box to reduces the glare of the light onto our subjects.
We have also used reflector to reflect the light from our
subjects so it isn't so bright on them.
