Using Camera Over Macbook

At the begining of our first filming lesson, we were prepared and expercting to be using a macbook to film our iStopMotion. Just as we were ablout to start filming, Mr Powell suggested to us that we use a video camera to film our movie apposed to the laptop. Using a camera allows us to zoom in and out which has been very useful to us already, and we are still filming our openning sequence. It will also dramatically improve the quality of our end product. As holding a laptop is extremely inpractical, using he tripod is also very helpful and will make sure there is no bumping/moving.
