The custom white balance symbol

Today we experimented using white balance and exposure. We worked in groups of 3 and were each filmed talking about what we hoped to get out of CRAM. We successfully created 3 films with the correct white balance and exposure. To do this we selected the custom white balance option on the camera and placed a white sheet of paper in front of the camera.The reason why we did this, was to tell the camera what 'white' should look like in the light condition. After doing this we adjusted the exposure by using the exposure buttons on the side of the camera and we adjusted it as we wanted. When the white balance is correct it really makes a difference in the quality of filming.
