Okay thanks. I still need something for outdoors though.
You mean for indoors? Good grief. How many times is someone going to have to say "get a fur cover for the foam windscreen" before you pick up on that subtle hint?! Or, hey... Try this:

The Rode Blimp will not work, since I cannot get in close enough with the mic, cause the blimp is too long. I have the Rode NTG-3 as well. I measure and the NTG-3 is 10.1 inches. The blimp is approximately 18.5. If you don't believe me, here's a video I made with the NTG3 mic next to the road blimp:

Bravo, Ryan. You demonstrated your complete ineptitude once again. Let's review your math:
The mic is 10" long. The blimp is 19". (Measurements rounded to keep it simple.)
So you have pointed out that you have nearly 10" from the front of the mic to the front of the blimp. Good job on completely discounting what happens inside the blimp when the mic is mounted.
Unless you are using a cable with a right-angle connector, add 4" for the connector and a little of the cable sticking off the back of the mic. So, without the blimp, you are now working with a 14" assembly. So that takes the difference down to approximately 5". Further, the mic does not sit against the back of the zeppelin as you have it situated in your wonderful video. Of that 5" difference, 2" are added to the rear and 3" to the front. The actual, practical difference is nowhere close to 10".
But then, why am I even arguing this with you? The blimp is overkill for interiors, and that's been mentioned over and over again. But you don't care about practical advice.
When I shift the mic from person to person I move to fast for the foam windscreen to handle then right. How do I move it fast enough, from actor to actor, before the next actor begins his/her dialogue? I have to move fairly quick unless my methods of movement are just wrong.
Are your actors 20' apart or something ridiculous like that? If they're far enough apart that you're having to move the mic that fast. It's time to add a second boom op.
Really, I'm done. I cannot for the life of me figure out if you're really this ignorant/dense, or if you're a brilliant troll who has nothing better to do than waste people's time. Either way, nobody wins. Good luck.
