For those looking for a "crash course" in audio for video, Audio Technica has posted the series of 13 educational video blogs that are all about location sound recording. Note that the original drafts were written by Fred Ginsburg, who also was present on the set as a Tech Advisor. This informative series of short videos can be accessed either via the Audio Technica site, or directly on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSY8LG6gVbQSXUWAM_P-uAYL9rpnrk2in
These are great videos for novices and students, featuring Charlie Waymire (as on-air talent). And totally FREE for schools to use!
The series are short (5 min or so) presentations explaining booming, lavaliers, handhelds. wireless, rigging talent, selecting mics, making windscreens, plant mics, and reflected lavs. Lots of useful tips!
