Hi guys
I have a situation where I need to purchase some sound equipment for a tv show.. I'm in the circus, completely outdoors and not under a tent or anything. We film a mockumentary on circus life as we go along. Our previous tv show pitch was loved, but was rejected due to sound quality.
Basically, a standard shotgun/boom wont work for what I need. We are very fast paced, no script, no set filming pattern, no story boards, etc. We film a lot of stuff in between shows, while performing, setting up, packing up and driving. Sometimes our performances consist of two of us, sometimes more but never enough people that we can have one filming and one on the mic. We do everything with $0; I basically just purchase stuff as I go along.
Our setup is a basic 1080p handheld camera without sound input (Hasty purchase I regret), and now a Canon EOS 550d/Rebel ti2. What would you guys recommend that we'd be able to capture decent sound, but still have filming and sound input a one man job?
Cheers
