[MacDV] My first graduation ceremony

[DBAFeldman at aol.com]

Unfortunately, the Listmom did not see fit to allow this to be posted. No 
reason given. So, I try again:

<Multiple cameras will help. See if you can get tape from other parents from 
different angles. I will often recruit and "coach" other parents prior to 
school events. Suggest areas they can emphasize as per Brian and DO offer them 
Brian's advice "When you move the camera, move it slowly and carefully. Don't go 
nuts with the zooming, panning and scanning, you'll make viewers seasick." 
Encourage the use of tripods.>

A wireless mike set in front of a speaker may also be advantageous. Sound for 
those addressing the graduation is important. You can always cover other 
areas with background music. In my son's video, a background of music blended with 
the reading of the names of graduates was very effective. 

Good luck,
Jamie
