Curtis, your videos are incredible, I agree. And thank you for them. I posted a question above but figured I'd direct the same question specifically to you since I'm in need of an answer sooner than later- I've been recording audio for interviews at work, using a rode boom, oktava mk-012 sdc and also a rode lav mic. 3 sources. Am I to use more than one source when mixing in post? Or do I just go with whichever sounds the best for that given interview? The lav always sounds super dry and sterile but obviously is without most room noise and echo. I have been tucking the other mics underneath the lav for a more natural sound but have run into phase issues here and there. Should I be sticking strictly to 1 single source? Is having the other sources simply for redundancy- or do they all get used at different levels for the best result? This is something I am used to doing when recording music but am not familiar with standard practice for dialogue in an interview. Thanks so much, I hope you find a minute to respond.
@@pauljohn5584 Hi Paul, you can go either way. It is not unusual to run into phase issues so you may need to do some nudging of the boom tracks so that they don't create any comb filtering. I often just use one of the mics in post on my corporate pieces because I have to turn them quickly and even the lavs are picking up sound from the HVAC system and even worse, most of the spaces in the building where I work have white noise generators. Often there's also a music bed so room sound generally doesn't pose a huge issue. In short, I think you have all of those options depending on what works for your project. Hopefully that helps a little. Best wishes!
Curtis Judd Cool man, thanks so much! I was afraid I was breaking some cardinal rule of audio for video. I shall forge ahead with confidence. Thanks again
Back in the 80s I worked for a major studio in Portland, Oregon… we mainly did audio for radio and TV, but also had production sound capabilities, so I went out on all sorts of shoots (and I have a lot of stories from that time). Gotta say, with all of the advances in equipment, this video was very good. Thank you so much.
I just had a shoot this weekend where the interviewer was speaking to a presidential candidate. Pretty much same setup but the mic was on the interviewer only and I told him to stand as close as possible to catch her voice. He did great! And, it sounded very good. Fast pace shoots are usually just good enough, but I would totally take me time if I had any. LOL!!!
Not only do you produce great gear, but also your tutorials are among the best(est). Many "big" brands should take exemple !!! After some 15 years on all types of sets (events, fiction, live shows, corporate... indoor, outdoor, stage, sound studio, voice booths, convention centers), I can say Marlon delivered some crystal clear advice about how to run the live-part of an ITV sound take, with consideration for lights and props departements, talents, staff safety, behaviour and ethics, gear choice. It's all in there, and done well... bravo ! A double "like" would fit better... 😇
I am still very much a novice, but I recorded a fabulous guest on an interview in front of a brick fireplace. Even though I had the guest and I on Lav's there was so much Reverb and just an overall echo I could not scrub it clean enough. I was so upset, but graciously the guest agreed to film another day at a different location. I would love to know tricks on canceling that terrible audio effect if I am ever in a similar scenario.
That was excellent! Short, concise, and to the point with little nonsense. Marlon has excellent stage presence: not goofy, serious and professional. I like that. And Andrew, you are much more professional and serious with Marlon than that other goofy guy you often do videos with. Stick with Marlon.
Always impressed with your videos. A ton of information made clear and understandable. Been watching forever, and finally realized that circle spin overlay graphic is a speaker. LOL! 👍
Great tutorial! Btw, I have some questions - about an audio work 1. What gain should i use when recording, I have heard that we should let the gain between -6 to -12 is that true? 2. If I want to hide a lav inside the clothes, how could I stick it with? 3. If we use both shotgun and lav, Which one should i use? Ex. In your video,Did you use an audio from shotgun or lav? Or use both? 4. What the difference between cheap and expensive lav? and Does the wireless transmitter effect an audio quality? Thanks, I really learned a lot from your channel. KEEP IT UP GUYS!!
Perfect! This is the kind of setup I can afford. The D3 Pro with a location kit is on my list (With the C-Stand and boom pole and all those other things you showed). At least I have a recorder already!
We think the D3 Pro Location Kit is the perfect kit for videographers who do a lot of different types of productions. From live event DSLR shooters who need an on-camera mic with a gain knob, to shooters who film a lot of talking head interviews who need a solid boom microphone.
One of my first ENG gigs was for the Miami Heat and I forgot to bring a cstand -___- .... my arms were definitely mad at me by the end of it. But anyways Thanks for the tips! 💯
Any discussion about treating the room? Sound blankets? Phones off? Feed to camera? Nice to see the proper set up of a boom on a C stand...I use a stand with wheels.
What about interviewing subjects on location like outside, how do you set things up? What if a subject doesn't want to wear a personal mic on location, how do you set up audio then?
I recently shot a series of interviews in London. The room was a nightmare with really powerful AC we couldn't turn off, a busy road and workmen hammering outside, but we managed to get fairly good audio using the Deity D3Pros, boomed over our talent. The only real issue was when were got back to the edit we realised that the mics were actually picking up the rumbling of the Underground trains running under the site. We hadn't been able to hear this during the shoot, it was only afterwards the noise became apparent. Just shows just how good Deity mics are, I just wish we didn't have to work in London so often!!
@@pauljohn5584 Not really, by the time we had removed the road noise, air con, workmen and kitchen noise there wasn't much left of the dialogue to repair. Luckily the mics reproduced the voices really well so we decided to keep the voice quality and let the train rumble go. It wasn't that bad considering the conditions and after the initial viewing we realised that we were being a bit too picky, as the client didn't pick it up.
Lots of great tips, thanks. Quick question. For an interview like that, would you recommend using a normal foam windscreen to reduce plosives, etc or just having the microphone bare to have slightly better audio quality?
I notice some lav mics on some interviews/news anchors etc are turned downwards to minimize 'plosives' and some are turned upwards (as normal). How is this determined? Is it tested for at the sound check?
I've been recording music for years but I'm a newcomer to recording audio for video- been watching many of these videos lately and they are super helpful. But a question I've been having over and over; am I supposed to use BOTH the boom and lav mics together in post? It's tricky sometimes getting the phase relationship in-step but of course possible. But is this standard practice? Or should I only use ONE of the sources? Do I just mute or delete whichever I'm not using in this case? Is recording multiple mics simply for redundancy/backup? A response would be so incredibly helpful. Thank you.
Hey, I work on location and in post. Usually you only use 1 source. Preferably the boom because in an controlled environment it's sounds better than the lav. But there are many occasions where you'd want to use the lav. For example if the boom was too far away, to much reverb, etc. So generally use what sounds better. You can also cut between the two if there is suddenly something going wrong on one source (like clothes rustling). Try to EQ match both sources if you do that though. Hope that helped. P.S. yes, it's basically for backup.
No mention of correct recording levels? How to set up gain correctly on Tx vs. Rx vs. Recorder? What about hiding lavs? Best practices to avoid rustle? This is something I've been struggling with often as a cameraman on a one-man-band gigs where you don't have a dedicated sound person.

Excellent video! i have a question about mic'ing 2 talent sitting side-by-side with just a little bit of space between. Would a single super cardioid mic placed between them be a good solution? (I'm assuming that 2 lavs or 2 overheads requires tedious editing in post since there will always be bleed between the 2 mics causing additional echo if you don't constantly mute one of them right?) Thanks again for the awesome videos :)
When you have a C stand, if the front is where you want to record, will you put the sandbag in the backside of the sandbag? as it is front heavy, that part confuses me a little bit, correct me if I am wrong... in the video I got information as boom pole and the sandbag are in the same front part. Which can't hold... maybe in 2:27 the yellow arrow doesn't means the direction of boom pole? but in the opposite direction?
Hey Chenny, it's a matter of physics and practicality and... a combination of both. The physics show that the bigger leg will support more weight leaning over it. Practicality says that having a sandbag on the biggest weight puts all of the weight on the C-stand itself while placing it on a shorter leg will put parts of the sandbag on the floor. All the sand that is on the floor is not adding to the weight of the stand and thus is not lowering the center of balance of the stand. The goal with adding weight to a stand is to lower the center of balance so it is less likely to tip over. If you were to put the sand bag on the rear leg, you would gain a slight advantage of the standing tipping 180 degrees away from that leg, BUT the risk of losing weight from the bag for overall stability of the stand from tipping ANY direction counteracts that "benefit." So... big leg faces in toward the set, and we sandbag the big leg.
One question: How do I setup the recorder (specifically Zoom H6) so that I can get two separate tracks; one for Boom mic (the main audio) and the other track for the Lav mic (redundancy)? I've been thinking about this for a while. Thank you in advance.
Andrew is wearing a W.Lav Pro in the center of his chest using a basic moleskin sandwich. Marlon is wearing the W.Lav Micro in the same place using a Rycote sticky and a URSA soft circle.
Electronic News Gathering ... as opposed to paper news gathering which would have been an old school newspaper reporter taking notes with a pen during a press conference whereas a TV reporter would have just filmed it.
Yes... and No. You'd actually probably want to use a super cardioid or possibly even a cardioid microphone for their wider pickup patterns. If you used a microphone with a shotgun (lobar) pickup pattern you'd have to back the microphone up a lot above their heads and you'd end up picking up a lot of the room noise.
We recorded both. You're hearing the lav in this video - the location was pretty noisy and the proximity of the lav beat out the directionality of the D3 Pro in this case. Next week we have a 2 person interview and we'll compare the two feeds!
@@DeityMicrophones That explains it. I really enjoy your videos. I handle PR, artist relations and content gathering for several pro audio manufacturers. I'm trying to learn more about video and these really help.
How do you mic a sit down interview with two women both wearing necklaces and dangling earrings and long hair? How do I not pick up the movement of all the accessories?
Skilled reporters always have a little "warm up" talking I prefer to set the levels while that happening. I don't know why, but here the what do you had for breakfast surprise the talent and usually just standing there silently thinking "why this weirdo wants to know what I ate" :D what I ask instead that isn't it uncomfortable the transmitter, or something connected what I did for the job, it's a more realistic question:)
The Uni-Mic is still being beta tested. We keep getting feedback from users and we keep making minor tweaks so that when it's released, you'll know that everything about it has been tested and designed to work the way it does by pros we got feedback from.
What problems HAVEN'T I had?! Let's divide them into categories: Category 1. I forgot - to turn on the pre-amp... the adapter thingy to connect the pre-amp to my camera ... to press record so many #@*!ing times... Category 2. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ who knows? the wierd a** buzz thing whenever I've tried to connect the (low) camera output of my field recorder to my camera audio input. I was able to do it once, but it's been so long I'm starting to think I just imagined it. My own personal recording unicorn. Category 3. My own incompetence with the gizmo... so much clipping! or so low a level the dialogue and the noise floor are competing to be heard. On one epic video, I managed to do both at the same time - Person A's recording was clipped AF, and I could barely hear Person B's recording. I'm so worried that my sound department (i.e., me) is going to #@*! me over, that I am forever building in redundancy (lavs with a smaller field recorder, two level recording, etc.) so I haven't needed to throw everything out. Redundancy, folks. It's not just a British euphemism for getting canned!
What problems have you had while recording interviews?
i am getting weird static from both my wireless lavs & D3 Pro
HVAC system that cannot be turned off.
