<ul>
<li>The more picutres you take the better your video looks.</li>
<li>You need tripods.</li>
<li>Students should finish any "scene" of the movie before they leave for the day. It is impossible to get a camera set up in the same place two days in a row. </li>

</ul>
<p>Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.</p>
