Hi there,
Sorry if this is in the wrong place, wasn't sure where to put it.

Was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how a fella could mount a camera on a microphone as seen in this clip?

I'm going to be filming a concert soon and would really love to be able to do this as well as my other setups.

Cheers
 
You put the camera on a tripod in front of the mic, not on it. If you look carefully, there are a couple times he bangs the mic with his mouth, the mic moves, but not the camera.
 
Oh right, it's just that I can't see the camera anywhere in the wide (the video quality is low so maybe it is there and just not visible).

I just wanted something not as distracting for both the performer and the audience as a big camera on a tripod in his face. It seemed like this might be using something
different but I could certainly be wrong.
 
That is what the zoom is for. Set it back a ways from the stage, and train it on the mic at whichever angle works best for you. If this is in a club/audience environment, you will need to ask somebody to guard the camera. An electric cattle prod will help keep the crowd out of frame ;)
