Preliminary Task- Camera Skills

What are the benefits of using a tripod and shooting multi-camera?
When filming a production the best thing to do would be to film with a tripod and more than 1 camera. When using a tripod it allows the shots to be still and steady which will look at lot better. However this depends on the effect you want to give- if your filming something and want to have an sense of unease or like a chase scene using a hand held can have a good effect. 

Another good thing to do is shooting with more than one camera. By using more than one camera it means being able to record shots simultaneously for a faster turnover of all shots required in a scene and a sequence.Using two or more cameras is primarily used in talk shows, news programs, and other live programs that are set-up in a studio or any other controlled location. Yet, it can also be used in TV dramas and films set in varying locations, especially those that find it more practical to shoot certain shots in different angles and shot distances without having to frequently repeat the entire set-up.
