LIGHTS & MICS – Tricks and Tips for Vlogging #5 – Blunty3000

Lighting and Microphones for your Video Blogging. Blunty3000 gives some back with this series of hints and tips on video blogging.
Big thanks to the folks at Sony for throwing me a couple of bloggie cams to give away :D
Part 5 of 5.

This time; hints and tips on Lighting and sound with secret tricks on mics and lights

Video was recorded with the Sony bloggie, so you can get a pretty good idea about how the camera is performing naively & unaltered, and even in low light and nighttime shoots this time. The raw files (mp4) were dumped right from the camera into FCP and was edited without needing any conversion or messing about.

    This maybe a little out of your depth, but how would you suggest i go about getting decent sound from playing acoustic guitar and singing without going to the length of getting a professional condenser mic?

    You know, that …
    You know, that about the sound and wind, there is a way of taking care of that. I think I mentioned before that I tied a scarf around the mic, but that was thanks to that the cam went in where the mic was. I’m just thinking maybe you could test with scarfs or gloves in windy environments. Heh, you standing there with a glove in your hand and people go “Why’s he holding a glove?” “Because there’s a vloggycam inside.” ;)
