			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I have a Sony Camera whose model number I've forgotten.  Weird.  Then I have a student lamp with a banned 75 or 100 watt light bulb, and a regular lamp with a 60 watt bulb on the left side of my wife's dresser.  The space on the dresser is where all the animation takes place.

Audio is recorded on a Yamaha 1600G sixteen track recorder with a microphone whose brand name I forgot.  (I used to use my brother's Shure snowball before I began Brickfilming.)  I use a laptop computer with Sony VBegas for making video, Sony Acid Pro fro making music, and Sony Sound Forge for audio editing.]]></content>

I really should get some more poster board as it is a good background.  Also I really have to work on my masking skills.  As they were disastrous for my film Iron Man 2. :lol:]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[b]Camera:[/b] Canon EOS Rebel SL1, Helios 44-2 58mm lens, 28mm Nikkor lens
[b]Software:[/b]
    [i]Capture Software:[/i] DigiCamControl
    [i]Photo Editing/Masking:[/i] Photoshop Elements 12 and Blender
    [i]Video Editing:[/i] Sony Movie Studio 12 Platinum (which, IMO, is a professional quality editor, and the best out there on a budget)
    [i]Audio Recording and editing:[/i] Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio (IDK what version), Audacity
[b]Sound Recording:[/b] Blue Snowball Microphone, DIY sound box and pop filter
[b]Lights:[/b] I use many types of lighting, but primarily, I use 3 desk lamps, two with white florescent bulbs, and one with a yellower bulb. Sometimes I use an LED desk lamp (which isn't very bright) and Christmas lights. I have used night lights before as well.

For backgrounds, I use posterboard. Some of it has been painted to change the shade and give it a cool look, and some is just original color. Some has even been cut to look like hills and such that I can overlay on top of other posterboards.

The animation rigs (not for the camera, but for object animation) I use are Helping Hands (found on Amazon). I occasionally use LEGO rigs, but I find those harder to use and less effective for most uses. I use an old, basic tripod for the camera.]]></content>

[b]Software:[/b] Adobe Suite CC (but I only use Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop and Audition), HitFilm 2 Ultimate, FrameByFrame
[b]Sound recording:[/b] Zoom H4N

I also have an assortment of sheets of green, blue, black, red and beige card in various sizes, for chroma keying and for backdrops.

When it comes to masking rigs, I just build them out of LEGO parts. In the past, I even made rigs for my old camera (a Fuji Finepix thing, can't remember the model) out of LEGO bricks. It was pretty effective.

If you're on PC, I would recommend Serif Movieplus over Vegas. More versatile, more user-friendly interface.]]></content>
