  • that boom man sure looks sad as he walks away...

  • There are a dozen other reasons to get an expert. You don't need apple boxes or ladders for that kind of shot. Learn the dialog, keep an eye on the person not talking to see them take a breath just before they start talking. etc....

  • Try using two wireless lav mics. Wait, that would mean no work for the boom op. scratch that!

  • @HunterMann ...it also probably means lots of wind, rustling clothes and not as good of a final product than a shotgun mic. It's fine for anchormen but even on the field they don't use them.

  • 22 seconds. amazing shes not standing in back of shot not to mention cutting the corner and dipping in.

  • have a look at damosonico.

  • why isn't she standing on some apple boxes to gain height? Maybe it's was a day off for the grips.

  • Lol...I guess everyone has seen this is really Bad Boom/Bad Boom. Everything said so far is correct. Since it is fairly tight shot, the boom op would be forward, almost on the same axis as the camera, with a fully extended pole. Then he/she would be able to "cue" the mic, as it's called, back and forth easily, with minimum motion. Also, there appeared to be little wind there so the full zep with animal (windjammer) was unnecessary. A softie or pole cat cover on the mic would have been enough.

  • I agree with Doc Rob, both their technique is crap, they should have the pole extended and come from the front and twist the mic at each dialogue, with much narrower arm grip, after all its a very tight shot :D wide arms = fatigue, height is an advantage but not detrnental :)

  • in EXT, most of the time if you twist the mic, you'll have a different BG sound.

    so try to maintain mic axis on most of the time, especially EXT.

  • the person is not tall enough and no ladder at site...

  • Thats the best way to hold the boom if you want a bad back as quick as possible.
