Filming

Aperture.
Aperture is a device that controls the amount of light admitted through an opening. In filming aperture is the unit of measurement that defines the size of the opening in the lens that can control the amount of light reaching the film or digital sensor. The size of the aperture is measured in F-stop.


Shutter speed.
 Shutter speed is the time the shutter is open. The faster the speed, the shorter the time the shutter is open, and the shorter the time the image sensor is exposed to light. 
The shutter speed is measured in fractions of second. 1/50 (0.02 second) is the standard shutter speed for film cameras, while for video cameras the standard is 1/60 (0.167 second).



ISO.
ISO is actually a common short name for the International Organisation for Standardization. ISO denotes how sensitive a sensor ( or originally film) is to light. 
It was measured in numbers . The lower the number the lower the sensitivity of the film and the finer the grain in the shots you’re taking.
