IMPORTANT - Procedure for borrowing and returning equipment booked out of lesson time
As a Media Student, you have the privilege of borrowing expensive, industry standard equipment to film your title sequence. With this privilege comes responsibility and it is important that you respect the procedures for borrowing equipment.
If you are borrowing equipment to film out of lesson time (in the evenings or over the weekends) then you MUST follow the quick, but very important, procedures for picking up and returning equipment outlined below.
Failure to follow these procedures, or to bring the equipment back in the condition it was in when you borrowed it, can result in you not being allowed to borrow equipment for your filming sessions.
Collecting Equipment
1. arrive at the technicians' office with a signed green equipment slip from your teacher
2. the name on the booking form MUST be the same name of the student picking up equipment, it must have a corresponding mobile contact number and they must have their Media ID card
3. make sure that you have your memory cards with you for filming
4. wait to be given the equipment
5. if you are sharing the responsibility of borrowing equipment within your group, be clear who is collecting and who is returning which equipment.
Returning Equipment
1. if returning equipment separately within the group, you MUST be clear who is responsible for returning which equipment. As a group you share responsibility for ALL equipment borrowed and it must ALL be back by the time stated.
2. you MUST turn up on time to return equipment. In the morning this is 8.45 AM. Cameras need to be available for lessons starting at 9am. Late returns will incur penalties and you may not be able to borrow equipment again.
3. you MUST only give equipment back to the technicians or a media teacher in the technician's office
4. you MUST wait whilst the technicians check off each piece of equipment you have returned. Never leave equipment in the office without it being checked.
5. the returns process is only complete when the equipment has been checked by the technicians and the green booking form signed off by them - you must allow up to 15 minutes for returns at busy times
If you have any queries or questions about these procedures you can ask your teacher, one of our lovely technicians or come and find me, Louisa, in room 315 or during workshop on Monday and Friday lunchtime.

Returning Equipment
Regardless of the type of equipment you borrow - from a digital still camera to a fig rig or a DV Camera, the time for returning equipment to the technician's office is always the same:
8.45 am
8.45 am
8.45 am
8.45 am
8.45 am
8.45 am
8.45 am
Failure to return equipment on time could result in not being allowed to film out of lesson time or off site.
This could have a serious impact on your coursework so, if you can't return it for 8.45am, you mustn't book it out.

Filming checklist
When you go out to film and BEFORE you start filming, make sure you check the following things:
1. check that the ND filter is OFF
2. check that you have the memory cards with you and have inserted them into the camera before filming
3. count down 4 seconds from pressing record to the action starting
4. test clips - once you have finished your first recording when shooting, watch back to make sure that the shot isn't too dark and is in focus.
Look at the pictures below to help you check you have the right settings on for your camera. These are also in the camera bags so ensure that you look at them before you start filming.
