    The boom pole folly

    I will check out the K-tecs. IN the meantime I have gotten a couple foam sleeves. They should fit tight enough to keep it in place, but not restrict the locking of the positions. I am going to give it a try first. If it doesn't work then I will go for the immediate upgrade.

    The boom pole folly

    I just extended each section of the pole as far as possible. There is a bit less rattle. It is a lot less frequent now. I am sure an experienced boom operator could do a much better job with it than I am currently doing. Then again, that same operator would probably not be happy having to...

    The boom pole folly

    I thought about that one. Then I read a couple colorful reviews about it. Right now I am thinking of ways to possibly modify the terrible micro boom I bought. I can still return it, but if there was a way to muffle the hideous clicking of metal against metal I would think about keeping it...

    The boom pole folly

    I have often heard you get what you pay for, well, that is definitely true in Audio recording. I recently purchased a Rode Micro Boom pole. I barely got it set up before I noticed how loud the locking mechanisms seemed to be. With out a microphone the pole rattled when I moved it up or down...

    Microphones on a budget

    Don't fret. You have made a believer out of me. I am just too poor to implement it right now.

    /// Shot by a GH1 or GH2

    You get good reactions because it is very, very, good. That said, not everyone is going to like what you produce. You can create the most technologically advanced film of all time with superb acting and music, yet there will still be a large number of people that deem your film inferior in...

    $465 out of $500 with 32 Hours remaining, and I have been a busy bee. I wrote "Four Steps for a successful Crowd funding campaign. I will paste it here, but I also placed it in the My Crowd Funding Experience Thread. It basically tells you what you should be doing versus what I initially...

    > My Crowdfunding Experience

    My project is still running ($465 out of $500 with 32 Hours Remaining), but I realize that I made many mistakes. I misunderstood the true nature of Kickstarter and its relationship with artists and patrons. I also didn't understand that a video, especially for a film maker, is the most...

    Thank you so much, Miken. I was actually just finishing an update when I saw the pledge.

    Update: A little over 2 days remain. I have learned many things about crowd funding. #1- Movie Projects need movies: Every successful project I have seen has an excellent movie attached. #2- If you are doing a comedy project you have to show that you can be funny: I have seen a couple...

    $190 raised out of $500 with 5.5 days to go. The amount is small enough to give me hope, but time is quickly becoming an issue.

    Canon T3i + Rode VideoMic

    Fiio E3 Headphone Amp? Heard it works wonders with cleaning up hiss. Use it as a barrier between the mic and the camera. Question: Does the GH2 have the same hissing problem as the T3i?

    I can see your point about it being more local access than global. I was initially hoping to make a community type project. That may have been a bit short sighted. The roles in a Lyncredible production reached beyond the first Lyncredible film. We have another couple episodes scripted. We...
