7 Types of video production equipment needed to start a business

Both articles/videos have similar lists. However ‘no film school’ go into far more detail about what is needed during production. ‘Filmmaking lifestyle’ groups each component but doesn't put them individually, furthermore, it also looks into the post production phase and editing. 

The University of North Carolina School of the Arts Production Requirements Checklist. Goes into extended detail to focus on everything that is needed for a successful film shoot. Their list looks into all the forms that need to be signed as well as all the crew members who are needed to be present. It doesn't mention as much about equipment like lighting sound etc, however looks far more into permissions, and equipment thats is needed on set, but not for filming. This production equipment checklist would be used for a feature length film due to the fact that there are so many crewmembers and permission slips.

The film camera equipment solely focuses on camera equipment that is needed for a shoot. This goes into extensive detail for every single piece of kit needed. This would've had to be for a feature length film due to the fact that it goes into so much detail for only one component.

If i made a checklist on only the first two online versions, I might miss some key pieces of equipment. Both of those articles mention only a handful of pieces of equipment needed, and due to this, the film may not be as successful due to this. This would limit the knowledge of what is needed as well. It still gives us a basic understanding of what is needed, however extensive research must be conducted in order to make a successful film.
