http://www.hireacamera.com/camcorders/detail.asp?model=21

The video camera I have picked is the Sony dcr-trv480e

This camera will work well with my group and me because out of all the camcorders this one was the cheapest. As we could hire it for a day for £35.00 but we are going to hire it for a week as it only cost £66.67 if we was going to hire it for 4-5 days it will cost a lot more if you hire it daily then hire it for a week. The daily vat costs £42.00 and the weekly vat costs £80.00. The deposit of this camera is £50.00. This may seem a lot but this is the cheapest camera out of all of the ones shown on the website.

The Sony DCR-TRV480E will be supplied in a flight case with the following -  

•    1 x Manual •    1 x Composite Lead •    1 x Mains Lead •    1 x Mains Adaptor •    1 x Cleaning Cassette •    1 x Strap •    1 x Lens Cap The tripod that was recommended for the camera, which was chosen by me, is the fluid tripod the daily price of this is £8.33 and the weekly price is £34.17. We also are getting 4-4 pin fire wire cable so we are able to upload the footage onto the computer. the prices of daily and weekly are the same £3.33

the tripod and the cable can be found in the accessories part of the camera 

the location on where we are going to be filming is going to be at a park where we are going to use some of the trees for part of our advert and we will be using a class room for the news place.
the park location will be central park as it has a open area which will be good for what we need as well will need a place to start running at a point in our advert and we will need easy low trees to use.
central park at the moment for water work so we may have to move to the chase which has more trees. this will be ok but may cause problems as their is not much area to get part of our advert in for the full effect.

we will hire people to act out people from the different people from the games. so we will need costumes to make the people look like them. for example for Connor from assassins creed we will just really need a hood that will cover their face also it will need to be white. we could use some fake blood for the zombies (which depends on how much of the face of the zombie we show) that will be near the end of the advert.we need a blue shirt and maybe some blue jeans for steve from minecraft. and we could get a mask for batman and a black cape. but we could just have the mask for batman
