When I am filming in SL, I don't want the mouse and names of avatars to appear. How do i get rid of them?

Also, will somebody recommend a good HUD to use to control a camera?

Thank you!

disable the interface, control-alt-F1
For camera system, use Filming Path

Have you tried using Flycam from the Client menu? Get a good 'gamepad' and map the joypads to the correct movement controls, will give you freedom to move your camera around most scenes, although you will need quite a powerful system to cope with it without jerking.
Filmpath is a Ingame controller system which makes the process more predicable.

You need to be in debug (ctrl-alt-d) mode to use ctrl-alt-F1 to turn off the interface.
shift-alt-h turns off HUD attachments.

BTW you don't necessarily need to spend a lot of money to get a good gamepad. Mine costs me $A19 and works superbly.

If you want to use a camera HUD, Filming Path is the best out there IMHO.
