    Recommended field audio mixer for H4N zoom pro.

    I used to own a little 4 channel field audio mixer, but I would run it directly into my cameras (DXV, XL2 etc). On a side note I do a podcast and have a "studio" mixer (Behinger 1204USB mixer) that I run both into my computer and out to the H4NPro. I notice that the signal is a little hot and I...

    Intercom announcement - on location or in post

    So this was something I never thought about because I've never actually run across it until now. If I have an "announcement" come across a speaker - say in a retail store - this should be done in post, correct? I mean recorded in an booth or isolated area and add audio effects to make is sound...

    If buying gear from scratch with a blank check, what would you get?

    I had a friend approach me with an interesting question. He is working with an investor to start some sort of production company (the thing is a little convoluted to be honest) any way, but he wanted me to come up with a wish list of equipment to be able to start filming right out of the gate...

    Looking for ideas to film this creature effect without going CGI

    Here's my setting, it's the middle of the desert. My characters end up surrounded by creatures that are an allegory for their own death. For the sake of this post lets just assume they look like the Grimm Reaper without legs. Now my first thought was, no big deal I can just have them wear green...

    FS: My Whole Rig: HVX200, SGPro, Steadicam Pilot,Redrock Micro etc.

Getting out of the film game and going back to school - don't worry its also a creative field, but I do need to find a way to pay for it and this, sadly, is the only way. Below is the list of all my gear and the prices that go with them. All the...

    Is vignetting on one side normal?

    I was playing around with an SGpro today, and on both my monitor and the LCD I was zoomed in far enough to where there was no vingnetting. But when I imported the footage into FCP, i noticed that there was some on just the left side (right when i flipped the footage)... I wasn't alarmed at...

    HXV200 newbie question

    Sorry about this question, but I really am new to the panisonic world of cameras. I have been a Canon man for forever... but is there a world of difference between the HVX200 and the HVX200a? I cant seem to find much on that. EDIT: Nevermind found some stuff on this site...

    HVX200 vs HPX170

    I've been looking between these 2 cameras... is it true, these lists of differences? -Same chipset so you get the same great low noise, low light performance. -Wider lens. 3.9-51mm aka 28-368. Now you're talking! That's pretty wide for a fixed lens. -LIGHT: 4.2 lbs as opposed to the chubby...

    I feel like I'm wandering into enemy territory...

    Okay I'm going to lay it all out. I've always been a canon man. All the way back to the XL-1s. I loved my XL2 and practically cried when I had to let her go. I was downright convinced that I was going to purchase the XH A1 tomorrow. I had seen so much test footage that I was convinced. But then...

    Cant get motivated for a rewrite...

    Okay so I've written quite a few feature length screenplays, and my last one I consider my best work... so much so I plan on directing it myself in 2010. Problem is I know there are some flaws. I know what I want to change about it, but for some reason I just cant get motivated. It's not like...
