Introduction
Students meet during a six-hour Saturday session conducted at a field location, in which the instructor demonstrates the use of basic audio tools on location, including a portable DC mixer, radio lav microphones, a boom mic, headsets, and cabling. Topics covered include live micing techniques, problem-solving for environmental noise challenges, selection of proper microphones for the given assignment, and proper gain-staging and level-setting for feeding various video cameras and audio recorders. The difference between recording for video and using a double system for film shooting would be explained, covering some of the most common problems encountered in field recording. Students will have the opportunity to listen on headsets, and hear the results of the techniques demonstrated and explained by the instructor.
