Things i've learned with an actual camera: 1. Lighting - Adjusting the built in settings in order to get the best picture 2. Angles - 3. Tricks i'm looking to learn to use in after effects: 1. General normal fuzziness, White lines 2. Artificial Sound effects and ambient sound, being used in a realistic way 3. Meshing both sound and visual effect together

film project
Wanting to make a series based on the video game franchise WATCH_DOGS. Series will have it's own characters and story based in an Australian city. We already have access to a professional camera and certain sound equipment. We'll need to touch up on our editing skills in certain editing programs such as: Premiere Pro and After effects. After effects will be a very important program as the WATCH_DOGS titles have a lot of fancy effects. This will be a heavy factor in the opening credits for each episode. Sound will also be an important factor. We are currently looking for good programs to practice with.
