Video cameras
What's about the cheapest video camera I could get that's fairly good quality? As long as it's good enough for making an independent film on... I'm poor but I'm planning on making horror movies eventually(hopefully I'll be able to make one next year), and I just wanted to know what the average cheapest price was for a fairly good camera.

Hi,
It all depends on how much you have to spend. Let your budget dictate what camera you get...just make films, dont worry about the quality. At the top end id look for the Canon XL1s - a good 3ccd camera. (i own one) or the Sony VX2000, both about the same price $4000 If not try for any Sony or Canon models...Panasonic good also. If you cant afford a 3chip ccd camera, get the best quality 1 chip. Make sure it has DV in/out fire wire connection so you can down load and up load onto your PC. Hope this helped... Good luck!

Thanks for replying. :)
I definitely don't have $4,000 to spend :( I'm poor... I have a cheap video camera right now but the picture quality and sound is not very good... :o |

Even if you're just shooting on the family camcorder, you still have to be able to capture your footage into the computer for editing. You can do a lot of really cool things there so don't sweat it. Just make sure you have good lighting to start with.

No prob, LilMiss. My entire first film which I'm still shooting has costed about $20 altogether so don't money (or lack of it) discourage you. If you need any help, feel free to give me a hollar. I help out a lot of film makers (music, editing, secondary footage, acting, crew, etc.). I know it's a pain to put together most of the time LOL

Ok...thank you! :D
I doubt I'll be spending much on my movie either...since I don't have much to spend and I'm not sure that I'll make any money back from it. But at least it'll give me some experience and it'll be fun making it. |

That's why I got started. I was kind of disappointed in some of the films I was doing music for and decided to branch out and do my own. Any time.

What got me to thinking of making my own movie is watching other movies, that were terrible and just made no sense at all... and I thought "I could do so much better than this...at least my movies would keep people interested, I think, and they would be able to understand them."
