Question time -
I'm needing a low budget solution for a project I'm working on (for the audio side. I've gotten most of my other gear secured). Project details below, then question.
Format: Web series
ERT: 4-6 min/ep
Cast: 4 (right now, give or take 1 per episode)
Set: 1 (possibly 2 a bit later)
Setup of cast: conference table, likely.
The question being - I'm needing something as a worst case budget scenario solution. (worst case = ~$100).
Mostly I need a recorder and/or mics. I know enough people that I can at least rent a mixer/sound dude for cheap. I'm looking into a Tascam one-piece mic/recorder (Model number escapes me at the moment) and the Zoom H4. I've heard good things about both, but wanting input from people who may have actually used it.
Also kicking around the idea of clip or boom mics (I've got music connections, so I "may" be able to get my grubby little hands on a shotgun mic).
But yeah, thoughts and cookies welcome.
