Research Into Camera Shots

As I don't have much past experience with filming. I wanted to research how to use cameras and techniques that would help me achieve a professional looking piece which could help me achieve a high grade. To start with I looked at a few YouTube videos to help me get a basic understanding of what I am doing. I know what equipment I have to use and so I have looked at videos that involve these. For example I have looked at videos that are how to use a DSLR Camera and a Steadicam as i know these are items I will be using in my project.

After looking at other A level examples. I have found that trying to keep the camera steady is a problem for many of them even with the use of a Steadicam. To counter this I have researched into combating this by finding steady places to position the camera and creating homemade items that can move the camera steadily. There's also the option of hiring a "Tripod Track" where I would position the tripod to run smoothly across it to achieve a smooth shot.

I know that there is a likely possibility that some of the footage I shoot will end up being shaky, and so I have looked at how to remove the shakiness through Adobe software.
