Camera #2
The Panasonic VDR D150 produces a textured home movie aesthetic, likened to the early Safdie Brothers film's.The D150 strictly captures an SD image onto mini DVD. The D150 requires patience but is still loved by all those who have used it.
Sound Recorder
This recorder is limited in its ability to record direct sound but still records significantly better audio than what can be captured on camcorders. Set this up on a tripod and place it as close as possible to the action you're filming.
Tripod
Resurrected from rubble dumped down the side of a shed, this tripod is the original scavenged piece of TMW equipment. After ridding it of dirt and cobwebs, a base plate was purchased and it’s facilitated innumerable shoots since.
Small Tripod
Great for mounting iphones, GoPros, sound recording devices and small camcorders like the Samsung HMX-R10. This tripod has a magnetic bottom which allows it to be situated in odd places for interesting framing.
