Pics from the set

I DP...so its a rare sighting if i do sound...like locness monster sighting kinda rare. I was doin sound for a friend who was shooting a part of a documentary. I used my Newly acquired Marantz PMD661 supermod. I have a question... is there any kind of hook that can be attached to your belt so i can put the excess XLR cable on. So I can just reel off what i need and have the rest on the hook so i can move around freely? man that was annoying.
Along with piggin straps for any over the shoulder work I really recommend a coiled cable.
Expensive compared to regular xlr cables but I guarantee the moment you get it you'll be glad you did.

This is just one example

Nice post-Holiday gift :)
 
I don't have any to contribute at the moment, as I'm waiting on my boompole to arrive, but I've found some great information/tips and advises!
B6 lavs in the visors. Most of the short is a driving conversation.
Nice idea/advice. I would have never thought of it.
Here's the ad from the bathroom shoot.
Rocking the moving blankets to de-echo the shower a bit.
Great information. Will be useful if I ever have to do something similar. Any thick blanket can do?
 
Here's one from last summer. Working on an ambitious, really great short film. Talented cast, director and DP.

We were shooting a key scene with the two principal actors on a school bus. This was followed by an hour or so of moving shots inside the (very) warm bus as we jounced and bounced over marginal roads. I wish there were some good shots of me trying to brace myself in the aisle of the bus while routing the boom over and between the heads of the director, camera op, 1st AC, script supervisor, etc., etc. Now that would have been a hero shot !
