Great tutorials, there are perhaps some audio improvements that could happen with the series itself, but the information and presentation is awesome!

Thanx for the constant support, guys! I just picked up a lav mic and converter to run to my iphone so hopefully that'll free up my hands and body a little more in the audio stuff, haha

I think it's been at least two episodes since we've been back to this thread. I really like the new episode, it's on martial arts kicks for the screen. Suggestions on future topics would be great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CljCmF0vdcg

That iPhone seems to have a really high pitched scream to it... You may need to run it through a Low Pass/High Cut filter to get it to go away. (you will be able to see it on a spectrum analyzer).

Here's a couple of quick screen shots from my audio package to show you what that looks like (I hope you don't mind me using pictures of the waveforms of your production ) and how to go about fixing it.

Would you mind if I used the audio for my screencast on audio post production? I promise to giv you guys a shout out and post a link in the description.

Not at all!! Audio has always been a little of a mystery for me, actually, haha (I'm sure you can tell). Any publicity is good publicity and I'm curious as to this anyhow

If I lived near NYC, I'd be there. Shame I don't.
