We will be using an SLR camera for filming. The group is still undecided on whether or not we will need to use a tripod for the production, but we will be taking one regardless in case it is needed.
The editing software used is a choice of iMovie or Final Cut Pro. I am not in charge of editing within the group but we will be using IMovie as this is the software used to film our preliminary task and it was relatively easy to use.
Since the task is to create the opening credits sequence of a film, iMovie is also advantageous as it has many different tools and effects that can be used to add the credits themselves, as we did with the preliminary task.
