First off, I'm brand new to the forum, this is my first post but I have been reading through many of the threads/posts and I can't say enough how incredible this forum is with so much valuable information and people....
So, I'm shooting a documentary going straight to DVD of a GreekFest (college) at Jones Beach, NY this weekend. I will shoot interviews, performance footage and crowd scenes and also at nightclubs. I'm shooting it on my DVX100A with the following audio equipment.
1) Audio-Tech 4073A
2) Audio-Tech 15' XLR cable
3) Audio-Tech Shock Mount
4) Rycotie Softie
5) Gitzo Carbon Fiber Boom
6) Sennshieser MD 46
7) Possibly bring my Sennshier wireless G2 kit.
I have never done audio so this will be my first time ( I only have a 3 person crew) Am I good with this package?? I don't have a mixer or recorder so I will be recording directly into the camera. Is this a wise decision? Someone mentioned that if i use the camera it will eat up alot of the battery...Also, will the loud party crowd pick up with the 4073A? I would appreciate ANY help on how I should go about this....
