Objectives
This topic is dedicated to learn the importance of some camera settings such as FPS, ISO and aperture, and also natural lighting and learn how and when to use them.
This topic is divided into four lessons:
- FPS (Frames per second): how to choose the FPS value according to the type of action you are filming and to the viewing experience you want to offer.
- ISO: how to choose the ISO value to control exposure jointly with aperture and shutter speed, taking into account the quantity of light, the movement and the noise that can cause high ISO.
- Aperture: how to set the aperture according to the desired depth of field, taking into account the exposure triangle (aperture, ISO and shutter speed).
- Natural lighting: you need to find, recognise, create or use light and shadow to be able to take powerful images.
The main objectives of this topic are described in the following video:
