Today, I went to check out equipment for some homework I needed done. I was informed there were no more CF(CompactFlash) memory cards. This means that I have over $4,000 in equipment, but no way to record anything I want to shoot since there was no $30 piece.
This isn’t a self-contained incident, however. Just last week, when I was checking out some equipment, I was “lucky” enough to get the last CF card. This meant anyone needed a CF card after me would have been screwed over if I took it.
2. An HD camera (at least a 7D)
3. Lots of memory cards
4. Lots of batteries
5. About $15,000 spare in the bank for other expenses – gas, books (this is a joke, wait for my blog on books), paying for help, class materials, etc (since the school wants you to produce professional quality, even if you have no budget)
But the school wouldn’t care to tell you any of this because they “have everything you need at the school!” As if. Don’t even get me started about the great 2-Day Paper Shortage of 2013!

You can get around without all of this stuff, but trust me, it’s such a headache. I see it from students at school. I couldn’t imagine trying to go through school with none of that list above.
