It looks as though I'll give myself a crash course on 5.1. I hope I could learn basics to make it happen, your opinion?

Are many areanas such as film festivals, and others, require an indie film be processed in 5.1, am I closing doors before they open?

All this is achieved in editting. I only worked with Premiere on a doc. 12 years ago. You worked with the sound with bands, and more sound was dropped in other tracks. I did some reading about 5.1 and more, if I have a dialog track, an atmosphere track(background), sound effects track, music...

Again Thanks I thought that maybe dslr video was a secondary function, but everyone makes it sounds as if it were perfectly suitable for a ind. feature. What is all this concern of noise at low light levels, my film is on a set with quality light, is everyone shooting in a closet? There are...

First of all the thanks for all the good info. I made my purchases of Tascam and the Octavia mic, headphones, cables and back up batteries. I have practiced and have learned alot. This forum was very informative. Now, how do I rid my the "bottom' as I think it is called, the hum I can hear...

Before I make my $4000 purchase for the camera, what is going to change to make things better? I was sold on the Black Magic, but all these delays, and I would like to use it in my business. So I look to nikon, but reading the rumors, the new body won't have any significant video improvements...

Hey.. thanks. Gonna order the book. Vows

Thanks. Vows

I need to do more reading about sound.I've been a photographer, but I need to have a far greater comprehension of audio to make a film to the highest level I can... where on the web? That last conversation is lost. Thanks Vows

again...MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER...that comment suggests to me that you would not make that choice, that it is less than adequate(the nikon). I read some much on Magic, but get the thing out there. Is it working? Lastly, I would like to use it photographing my wedding, that is absolutely a...

I would like to submit my film to festivals. I don't need the camera until april, will Black Magic figure things out, and would nikon and others keep improving? As tech. changes almost daily. Thanks

I am going to shoot a film in Sept. I've been a professional photographer for 30 years and am a Nikon customer. I've got a couple of lenses that I have loved, and I am a manual everything photographer. I always have read Canon puts a beating on Nikon Digital, then in my info gathering I read...

Sorry about that question. I am going to purchase the Tascam, but the price goes up down every three or four days. With the Octava and the tascam I am comfortable with the audio. How long can a mic cable be, I think I need 20 feet? All other questions are going to be camera. Thanks.

The photo of the cinema camera is a little out of my realm. Is it a reality to shoot a indie film, (basically a one act, single setting conversational story) on a DSLR. I read that it just is for special effects limited scene kinda thing. If I throw my sound from the mic to the Tascam, I...

Wow, powerful info. I purchased the Octava with a hypercardiod, because 95percent of my film is conversation on a single set. I was going just to hang it over their heads and go back and forth. Being a professional photographer for 32 years, I only was concerned with the look of the film. Also...

I was looking to purchase a $300 mixer that sits under camera, why would I consider a audio recorder, field recorder.? Thanks

Thinking about buying the Black Magic Camera, with Nikon Lens, but I know little about sound. I've read all about hyper-cardiod mics for my mostly indoor project, but which one, don't have big money, not over 6oo for mic and nec. ass. Looked at the blue one, the russian one and the audix one...
