[PAST EVENT] Techniques of Audio Field Recording - Tyler Trumbo ?07
Access & Features
- Registration/RSVP
Sound recording is an essential part of production, yet often finds itself outside of the ideal environment of a controlled sound stage. This hands-on workshop will dive into several techniques designed to help capture the best quality audio on location and build a sense of readiness and flexibility within various situations. Topics include microphone choice and properties, wireless mics, boom technique, and silent communication with the cinematographer within observational documentary scenarios.
