Final Exam Planning Warm-up

I plan to try and shoot the assignment next weekend (May 7th and 8th).  This will give me enough time so that if something happens I can re-shoot.  My shots will be based around a trip to the zoo and the photos will be taken at the Austin zoo.  I'll need a camera, but I don't think I'll need a tripod.  I'm thinking the video will be towards the end I think the narration will also be near the end.
