i want to make a short film .. but i own just one camera( sony nex-vg10) i was wondering how i can get the audio from one sene for example: a scene from a car i want to shot from the right sit and also fromnthe back sit and use both scenes but keep the bakground audio intact . i now it sound silly but it's a pain in the a** to shot close-ups and don't mess de audio with just one camorder
 
There's a few ways to do it, you can do a voice over, or you can record some ambient sound from the location, that being in a car. But with one cam, unless your working with seasoned actors, that know how to hit the same marks, and do the lines the same each take. Either way, it would be tough to get two cams in a car regardless. you should shoot your master take. then shoot your secondary takes, lay the secondary takes over the master, and cut it till it works. Then lay your ambience track to even it to even it out Thats about all I can tell you.

Your goal is to get clean dialog audio with as little background noise as possible. All you want is the dialog. You don't want anything else. When you're shooting dialog, you shouldn't be thinking of recording background sounds. You record that separately and add it later.

That said, in this case, room tone is your friend. You record the room (or car or whatever) you're in, with no other sounds -- no talking, no movement, no anything except the ambient sound of the space. A lot of people will say to do it for 30 seconds, but I'd recommend recording it for the full the length of the scene so that you have a continuous backdrop.

Then, you use the room tone to create your background atmosphere, fill in gaps, even out dialog takes, etc.
